Dear annelidophiles,

About two weeks ago I was trying to find out whether some of the 
polychaetes we found in freshwater deprived estuaries are actually of 
marine origin.  So far I have received a single response only. So 
I'll just try again:

Does anyone know if any of the below are usually found in a constant 
salinity environment (e.g. sandy beaches), or whether they live 
in fluctuating salinity conditions (i.e. estuarine 
mouths)(please note: I am not interested in the zoogeography or 
region of origin of these worms):

Exogene normalis
Levinsenia (formerly Paraonis gracilis) oculata
Prionospio sexoculata
Eteone siphodonta
Micronephthys (formerly Nephthys) sphaerocirrata

Your input is highly appreciated,
P. Teske
