Hi, If you like Oweniids regenerating heads, than you will love the following
paper:
Aguirrezabalaga, F., J. Gil & J.M. Viéitez. 2000. Presencia de Myriochele
danielsseni Hansen, 1879 (Polychaeta, Oweniidae) en las costas de la Península
Ibérica. Boletín de la Real Sociedad Española de Historia Natural, Sección
Biológica, 96 (1-2): 57-68.
Resumen and English Abstract at: http://rshn.geo.ucm.es/pub/bio/bio_96_12.htm
In a population located at Zarautz (Euskadi, Bay of Biscay, Spain) several
tubes of M. danielsseni were found with two specimens inside, one regenerating
its head and the other its tail, in what seems to be a process of asexual
reproduction by transversal excision of the body (see figure 5 of the paper).
All the best,
João
