摘要: AdultScolecolepides viridis were collected by nocturnal plankton tows in the Lafayette River, Norfolk, Virginia. All adults (40–70 mm) filled with ripe gametes. Swimming individuals only at night on ebb tides. Large (36–60 setigers) post-metamorphic worms also plankton. The occurrence of down estuary adult movement is used to explain paradoxical information concerning this species within distribution and early development.
