    While diving in November we found strange specie (or part of specie?). I can only say that it was dead. Please, help to identify. Here is several shots below.
    On the 5th shot you can see a steel stick - it's diameter is about 5-6 mm, so you can imagine the size of the specie.
    Thanx in advance!

    Sorry, can't help you with the identification. However, I think I've seen something similar...alive. The picture below was taken at Bonet's Corner, Dauin, in february 2008 on an early morning dive at approximatly 15m depth.

    I would also be happy to have it identified.

    Those worms are segmented and look like scale worms. They look like polychaetes with scale-like parapodia.
