Nudi Pixel: Nudibranchs and Sea Slugs Identification with Photographs

Unidentified bristleworms

This is not nudibranch or sea slug

Photographed by: Tony Shue

Kingdom:	Animalia
Phylum:	Annelida
Class:	Polychaeta
Species:	Unidentified bristleworms

The bristle worm is in family Amphinomidae. I've seen pictures of the same species identified as the genus Chloeia. It might be this genus or it might belong to Notopygos - the picture doesn't show enough of the characters needed to distinguish between the two. Right now I'm in Saipan and hope to collect some of these little beauties so I can finally put a name on them.
