The "real" glowworms

[Sven Zoerner]

Dear Annelidans,

lurking on this groups since I started with my diploma thesis in 2001.   I   
would like to ask my first question here today. I work in the lab of Prof. 
Fischer in Mainz, Germany and have met some of you at the Osnabrück 
Polychaete Convention last year.    

I am working on the bioluminescence (patterns, function, behavior, fine 
structure) of Eusyllis blomstrandi and probably other luminescent syllids later 
on for my PH.D. Thesis. Since I am not working on systematic issues of 
syllids I am interested in any paper which describes bioluminescence in any 
other polychaete species, with a special focus on bioluminescent syllids.    

So if you ever get any kind of lists or only sidecomments on bioluminescent 
or probably bioluminescent polychaete species, I would be very glad if you 
could sent me the citation.    

I think it is impossible to search any polychaete species description and 
updates fulltext for bioluminescence, therefore I am looking forward to hear 
from you about all those papers which mention bioluminescence for any 
polychaete species, but which is not mentioned in the abstracts or keywords. 

Actually I am searching for all that papers which can't be found through 
active literature research, but only by accident.    

Thank you for your consideration.

best regards
