A fact from Teuthidodrilus appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 8 December 2010 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that the squidworm is a newly discovered genus of deep water worms with physical characteristics of both seabed-dwelling and free-swimming worms?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2010/December.

Picture

Would it be possible to use this image in the article? It says one should contact the WHOI Media Relations if one wants to use it. Since I wouldn't know what license or permissions to use when uploading I leave this for someone else to do. --Kaminix (talk) 00:07, 29 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Or any other? This article REALLY needs a photo of its subject (the referenced pic is a very good one). --Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 16:46, 8 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"transitional organism" [sic]

What modern biologist would think any species represented a "transitional organism"?--Wetman (talk) 17:35, 8 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

a better phrase

Can we get a better phrase than "protrusions that cascade like dominoes"? The protrusions couldn't possibly cascade like dominoes; a synchronous movement is surely being described.--Wetman (talk) 17:39, 8 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Actually discovered in 2007?

The article says this species was discovered in 2010. I have seen sources claiming it was actually discovered in 2007 and I even saw pictures that also say 2007. http://www.physorg.com/news/2010-11-bizarre-squidworm.html http://cdn.physorg.com/newman/gfx/news/hires/bizarresquid.jpg

Could somebody look into that? --Thisuserdoesnotexist (talk) 12:44, 15 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
