That’s a polychaete nematode called Amblyosyllis. I couldn’t find any numbers on typical body sizes, but I found some pictures of it near some ocean-floor pebbles and sand, and my guess is that it grows only 2 or 3 cm long.

As always, it is worth clicking the link under the image. There are many more marvels to be seen there. I like the way Fig. 12. Malmgreniella seems to move as I scroll it up and down my window.
That is just stunning.
Too many, um, feet?
Or maybe not enough.
this reminds me…
anyone else watching “The Strain”?
I hope that’s really, REALLY, small.

More on the Ohio creationism bill.
Marine Species Identification Portal : Amblyosyllis formosa grows about 15 mm long with 16 segments. Trebuchet, you don’t need to lose any sleep over it.
Pretty curls!
