Cladosyllis is a genus of polychaete worm belonging to the family Syllidae. Cladosyllis is closely related to Ramisyllis, together with which it displays a branching body plan with a single head and multiple posterior ends.[1]
The genus contains the species Cladosyllis ramosa, formerly known as Syllis ramosa, the first species of branching syllid discovered[2], and is thought to include more species that are yet to be described.[1]
Species
[edit]Cladosyllis ramosa (McIntosh, 1879)
Distribution and ecology
[edit]Worms belonging to the genus Cladosyllis inhabit hexactinellid sponges of the genus Crateromorpha at depths between 165 and 1000m. [1] They have been recorded in several Indo-Pacific regions including the Philippines, Tayandu Islands in the Arafura Sea, Okinawa, Sagami, Suruga Bay and Fukutoku seamount (Japan) and in the Tasman Sea. [1]
Description
[edit]Branching segments in Cladosyllis emerge from the side of the segment, at the usual placement of a parapodium, unlike in Ramisyllis where branching regions emerge from the region between segments.[1][3] A member of the "Ribbon-Clade" (flattened Syllidae including also genera Trypanobia and Trypanosyllis), the anterior region and some branches have a flattened shape in Cladosyllis.[1]
