Siboglinidae
Sign in to saveAlso known as Pogonophora
Siboglinidae is a family of polychaete annelid worms whose members made up the former phyla Pogonophora and Vestimentifera (the giant tube worms). The family is composed of around 100 species of vermiform creatures which live in thin tubes buried in sediment (Pogonophora) or in tubes attached to hard substratum (Vestimentifera) at ocean depths ranging from . They can also be found in association with hydrothermal vents, methane seeps, sunken plant material, and whale carcasses.
OverviewAI-generated
Siboglinidae is a family of marine organisms within the order Sabellida. It belongs to the class Polychaeta, phylum Annelida, and kingdom Animalia.

西伯加蟲科（學名：Siboglinidae）是动物界環節動物門多毛綱纓鰓蟲目之下的一個科[3]。本科物種包括原來鬚腕动物门（Pogonophora）及前庭動物門（Vestimentifera）的所有物種[4][5]合共約100個物種单体管栖蠕虫状后口动物，埋藏於100米到10公里水深的深海的沉積物中，但亦偶或见于浅海。 圆筒状身体，一般分前体、中体和后体，各有体腔和体腔管；血液系统完整，背部腹部各有一条主血管，腹血管前有心脏和围心腔，闭管循环系；雌雄异体，生殖腺位于后体。是所发现的惟一没有嘴巴和消化管的非寄生性动物，鬚腕动物其下生出触手一条或多条，触手两侧多羽状鬚，故名。触手中空，体腔和血管通入其中，有呼吸、循环或摄取养料的功能。 跟其他管觸鬚下綱的物種一樣，本科物種均沒有牙或下顎[6]，但觸肢上的開槽和纖毛已經消失[7]。 表皮外有角质层，它的微观结构和其他环节动物的一致。它们身体末端的钩型刚毛用于固定身体。身体有两体节，各拥有一对体腔。 它们生活在10到20摄氏度水温的海水中。与化能无机营养菌或甲基营养菌形成共生。 分類 食骨蠕虫属 Osedax 參考文獻 ^ WoRMS.

Siboglinidae is a family of polychaete annelid worms whose members made up the former phyla Pogonophora and Vestimentifera (the giant tube worms). The family is composed of around 100 species of vermiform creatures which live in thin tubes buried in sediment (Pogonophora) or in tubes attached to hard substratum (Vestimentifera) at ocean depths ranging from . They can also be found in association with hydrothermal vents, methane seeps, sunken plant material, and whale carcasses.
The first specimen was dredged from the waters of Indonesia in 1900. These specimens were given to French zoologist Maurice Caullery who studied them for nearly 50 years.
