Nemertea constitutes a spiralian clade of soft-bodied, vermiform animals that are 2 encountered in all marine habitats. Tubulanus polymorphus Renier, 1804 (Palaeo- nemertea), much like most of the long known species is reported to be widely distributed in the northern hemisphere including the west coasts of both Europe (Atlantic Ocean) and North America (Pacific Ocean). Specimens from the Pacific coast of the US and Canada had been originally described as a different species, Tubulanus (Carinella) ruber (Griffin, 1898) mainly based on differing coloration (Coe 1905). Tubulanus (Carinella) ruber was later synonymized with Tubulanus polymorphus attributing the differences between Atlantic and Pacific specimens to intra-specific variation (Coe 1940).
