Lamellibrachia satsuma - Biological Information System for Marine Life

Lamellibrachia satsuma is a vestimentiferan worm found from a seep area at depths of 80-110 m in the northeastern part of Kagoshima Bay, Japan (Hashimoto et al., 1993; Miura et al., 1997). The tube reaches 1,000 mm in length and 8.7 mm in opening width of top collar. The obturaculum of an adult bears up to 19 pairs of branchial lamellae and up to four pairs of peripheral lamellar sheaths. The trophosome filled with symbiotic bacteria is very long and followed by an opisthosome composed of over 30 segments. The species lives on products of endosymbiotic bacteria (Miura et al., 2002) and has been recorded from seep areas (Kanesu-no-se Bank, Nankai Trough and the type locality) and a hot-vent site (Nikko Seamount, Northern Mariana Islands area) (Kojima et al., 1997, 2001).
