Biology The species deposits its eggs in green gelatinous cocoons at the surface of mud flats and probably also on the bottom of tidal channels.
Distribution A. mucosa occurs near the Dutch coast, from the Voordelta in the south to the Dutch Wadden islands in the north, where the species is most abundant. In contrast to A. groenlandica this species is present in the eastern and western part of the Wadden Sea as well as in the Delta area. [details] Habitat A. mucosa is abundant in the fine sand areas of the Dutch Continental Shelf. It is also reported from rnuddy sediment, mixed with sand, shell fragments and stones, and in mussel beds. Compared to A. groenlandica, this species inhabits the muddier types of sediment. It is suggested that one species forces the other into a different type of sediment by competition (Hartmann-Schröder, 1971; Wolff, 1973; Hayward & Ryland, 1990). [details] Morphology This species resembles A. groenlandica, but differs by the shape of the lamellae on the parapodia and its smaller dimensions. lt can reach 50 mm in length and 250 segments. A. mucosa is whitish or yellowish in colour, with transverse dark brown bands or patches. The species shows a strong production of mucus (Hartmann-Schröder, 1971; Hayward & Ryland, 1990).
