Syllis prolifera
edit- ... that growing juvenile Syllis prolifera can add a new segment every two days? Source: "Throughout the juvenile development a new segment is added every 2 days and when the individuals reach the size of 30-40 segments become ready to start the first stolonization."
- ALT1:... that when breeding, the polychaete worm Syllis prolifera produces a detachable "stolon" which joins other stolons to swarm in the water column? Source: " the stolon detaches from the benthic parent individual (benthic stock) undertaking a brief pelagic existence swarming in the water column to spawn"

Created by Cwmhiraeth (talk). Self-nominated at 19:29, 1 October 2017 (UTC).
Nominated three days after creation, and is just over 2kB, satisfying date and length criteria. Could you change the heading "ecology", as it appears this section is really about the organism's life cycle or reproduction. Other than that, the article is sourced, there are no copyvio issues, and the image has an appropriate licence. The hooks are of suitable length and sourced. Good to go, but please change the header.

- Thanks. I have changed the section heading. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 20:14, 2 October 2017 (UTC)

Hi, I came by to promote this, but I notice that the article is an orphan. Could you link it in another article so it won't be tagged? Regarding the hooks, I find the first one a little vague and the second one too technical. But perhaps links could be added to ALT1 to elucidate the terms? Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 23:51, 9 October 2017 (UTC)
- Deorphaned. How about ALT2? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 08:09, 10 October 2017 (UTC)
- ALT2 ... that the marine worm Syllis prolifera has a
an unusuallife-cycle involving a detachable "stolon"?
Re-approving ALT0 and ALT1 now that the article is no longer an orphan. Not a huge fan of ALT2 to begin with, but Cwmhiraeth, which in the ResearchGate paper does it say that the life-cycle is unusual? --Usernameunique (talk) 05:17, 11 October 2017 (UTC)
- Well, it doesn't, so I have struck that word from the ALT2 hook. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:40, 11 October 2017 (UTC)
