Figure 7 in Nereidid polychaetes (Annelida) inhabiting the inside of decaying fronds of the mangrove palm Nypa fruticans in a tropical estuary in Malaysia, with special reference to the life history of the dominant species, Namalycastis sp.

Figure 7. Namalycastis sp., NSMT-Pol 113582 (4.2 mm BW, 200 mm BL) collected at Station 4 on 27 November 2015 (a, e, g); NSMT-Pol 113583 (2.5 mm BW, 250 mm BL) collected at Station 3 on 27 November 2015 (b–d); and UMT-Ann 1816 (2.6 mm BW, incomplete) collected from Station 2 on 27 November 2015 (f). (a) Sesquigomph spiniger in upper neurochaetae in posterior body. (b) Heterogomph spiniger with finely serrated blade in lower neurochaetae, chaetiger 5. (c) Heterogomph spinigers having blade with coarse serrations proximally in posterior body. (d) Heterogomph falciger with finely serrated blade, chaetiger 5. (e) Heterogomph falciger with finely serrated blade in posterior body. (f) Heterogomph falcigers having blade with coarse serrations proximally, chaetiger 200. (g) Heterogomph falcigers with finely serrated blade (f), and additional thin sesquigomph spinigers (epitokal chaetae) (ep) located at bottom position of lower neurochaetae in posterior body. Scale bars: a–e, g = 0.1 mm; f = 0.01 mm.
