Bispira volutacornis,sometimes known as the twin fan worm or spiral fan worm, is a type oftube wormfound in the shallowsublittoral zoneof the eastern Atlantic Ocean. It grows in crevices and in stony areas and prefers areas rich in sediment but with low levels of illumination. It has a parchment-like tube with amucoidouter layer that is often coated with mud or silt. The tube is usually concealed in a crevice and the worm can retract into the tube when disturbed. It feeds on plankton which it captures with its plumes. It also uses the plumes to gather sediment with which to expand the tube. ThisB. volutavornisworm was photographed inArrábida Natural Park,Portugal.
