Mystery Creature Causes Panic in Taiwan
This strange footage was shot in Taiwan recently, by uploader Wei Cheng Jian. He encountered this rarely-seen creature while fishing in a port in Penghu, and shared the clip to his https://www.facebook.com/chien.w.cheng/videos/939400179415040/ Facebook page soon afterwards. The green mass seems like to be some kind of ribbon worm, but poor Wei Cheng Jian remains unsure, and more than a little nervous! According to http://news.nationalgeographic.com/2015/06/150608-ribbon-worms-animals-ocean-science-taiwan-world/ National Geographic , the species is a type of nemertean called <em>Lineus fuscoviridis</em>.
