Original - Pectinaria koreni, a species of trumpet worm, shown with and without its sand tube. Trumpet worms build sand tubes roughly resembling ice cream cones up to 50 millimetres in length. This specimen, including the tube, is approximately 28 millimetres in length.
Reason
Very nice studio shot showing two aspects of the same species. Very eye-catching, good quality and very high EV. Already featured on Commons, and, interestingly, if promoted, this would become our first annelid FP.
