Hi Damien

If you click on the "references" icon on the following web page you will get 
a list of papers (mostly by Hannelore Paxton) that should help: 
http://www.museum.vic.gov.au/poly/onu.html.   

Although those web pages have not been updated for some time, the 
DELTA databases referred to have been considerably developed, and will 
be published in 2001 on a CD, probably by CSIRO Publishing.  

I don't know about quantitative sampling of beachworms, though.  Unless 
you have a dredge the size of a house that could be tricky.   

bye, Robin
