Ecology "The species shows remarkably high densities and a patchy distribution, typical of an opportunistic species occurring in enriched and polluted environments" (Langeneck et al., 2017: 874). [details]
Etymology The species is named after Carlo Nike Bianchi, "in recognition of his important work on Mediterranean polychaetes" (Langeneck et al., 2017: 874). [details]
Habitat In brackish-water lagoons and coastal ponds (0.5-3 m depth) it occurs often associated with Zostera and Nanozostera meadows; in marine environments (3.5 to 100 m) it is typically related with anthropogenic organic enrichment, such as sewage pollution and fish farms, but it also occurs in muddy and sandy sediments and maërl beds.
