Scientists have discovered three new species of glow-in-the-dark worms that look like something out of a nightmare.
are found in the shallow waters of Japanese rivers and streams. The blueish and purple light the glow-in-the-dark worms give off is what originally inspired the researchers to name them after ancient Japanese demons.. The overall family these worms belong to — bristle worms — are known for their coarse and sometimes bristles that cover them.
As such, these glow-in-the-dark worms are from a well-established family that has undoubtedly evolved quite a bit over the centuries, giving way for new species like these newly discovered ones.worms are known by the clump of tentacles that stretch out from their faces, enabling them to sift through river sediment while looking for food. These tentacles help give these glow-in-the-dark worms their nightmarish appearance, and finding three new species is exciting for the researchers involved.
