Mummer Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 I am hitchhiking on a Xenia stalk. I am in a kind of spiral shape, and I retreat into my casing when I am spooked. I'm sorry I can't get a better picture, but does anyone recognize what I might be? Link to comment
mushroom head Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 Looks like a X-mas worm. X-mas worms are good. Link to comment
Caesar777 Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 ...or some kind of "featherduster" worm. Either way, harmless, and close to fully-grown if not already. (Not a coco worm, as sometimes people may think. ) Link to comment
Daemonfly Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 From the blurry pic, I'd have to go with X-mas worm as well. Link to comment
Caesar777 Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 Again, it's not a coco worm--it's a tiny, similar-looking species. Link to comment
Reef_Mad_Man Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 Yah know, everything starts small. Its called infancy. Link to comment
Caesar777 Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 Yeah...And the likelihood of it being a coco worm is miniscule. Besides, their crowns don't even look like that--they're somewhat of a very tight SPIRAL. Link to comment
reef n ale Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 Caesar777, as your attorney, I advise you to ignore the Mad Man....besides, he may prove useful later.... Rob Link to comment
lgreen Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 physiological characteristics such as the "spiral" of the "feather", as caeser777 cleverly pointed out, eliminate the possibility of it being a coco worm. Link to comment
rissaroo Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 i would say a xmas tree worm also......they can come in lots of different colors cant they? Link to comment
Reef_Mad_Man Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 HAHAHAHA!!!! You guys slay me! But your right! Link to comment
