It is difficult to tell at that resolution, but it looks to me like a nemertean, not an annelid.
Good luck,
Edwin

Subject: [Annelida] Specimen from Indian coast
Dear Colleagues:
I am posting this information with a view to seek your kind help. During
our coastal monitoring studies along east peninsular Indian coast (Bay of
Bengal), we came across several specimens, 50 or so (pl see the attachment)
collected from soft sediments using a van Veen Grab (Hydrobios) at depths
10-30m. We tried identifying the specimen but failed. We even made an
approach to BNHM and I was advised to post the image and information on the
net. I would greatly appreciate if some one could kindly help with its
identification. I would be glad to receive questions if any on this.
Please let me know.
Thank you and with kind regards
Akkur Raman
