Lamellibrachia Genus

The Lamellibrachia is a genus of annelid that includes the giant tube worm. They live in deep sea, cool oceans and rely on the oil and methane in their habitat for nutrition. These organisms can reach lengths over three meters and can live hundreds of years. Lamellibrachia are part of the Animalia kingdom, the annelid phylum, the Polychaeta class, the Canalipalpata order, and the Siboglinidae family. Lamellibrachia, along with other members of the Annelida phylum, have segmented bodies and a coelom, or fluid-filled space completely surrounded by muscle. All these organisms lack a digestive tract and are sessile.
