The ribbon worm, also called proboscis worm, bootlace worm, nemertean, or nemertine, is any member of the phylum Nemertea. Nemertea is also called Nemertinea or Rhynchocoela. There are more than 900 Nemertea species, including free-living forms as well as parasites of sea squirts, crustaceans, and mollusks. Most Nemertea are found in marine habitats, but some may live on land (terrestrial) or in freshwater. There are 13 known terrestrial ribbon worm species recorded worldwide.
They are found mainly in or near coral rubble areas. Some are found in the sand. There are large ones (about 8cm in diameter), small ones (2-3cm in diameter) and even tinier ones that can hardly be seen. These worms are wary, though, and will disappear instantly into their tubes are the slightest sign of danger.
