Biological Characteristics of the Echiura worm Urechis unicinctus

Abstract

The Echiura worm Urechis unicinctus, is a marine biota which belongs to the annelids. Due to various animals are frequently found in Urechis' tunnels, they are known as the innkeeper echiuran. Secondary metabolites found in these animals are significant for biological study. The majority of these animals also serve as deposit feeders, gathering detritus from the sea. This short article describes its biological characteristics and functions in order to utilization a marine biota be useful for consumption and biomedicine.
