From editor or global species database
Editor's comment Originally described from Torcross, Devonshire, it is unlikely that the circummundane distribution as reported in the literature will hold against an analysis with DNA. The taxon is a complex of species, difficult to discern in absence of morphological characters.
see notes under Serpula cinerea Forskål, 1775, Serpula intricata Linnaeus, 1758 and Psygmobranchus intricata as well. [details]

Original Combination Serpula tubularia [details]

From other sources
Distribution Nova Scotia to Carolinas [details]

Habitat benthic species found over muddy and gravelly bottoms, usually attached to Placopecten. [details]
