THE MINT SAUCE WORM
The Mint Sauce Worm (the common being derived from the Channel Islands by reason of appearence) is otherwise known as Symsagittifera roscoffensis.It is one of the model organisms for stugying bilaterians. It is a free-living acoelomorph worm. They are abundant in the summer months and are commonly referred to as mint sauce worms because of the slick of dark green they produce on sheltered sandy beaches. Like many other acoels, this species can regenerate itself when damaged, or when a small piece is cut away, because they have a stem cell system of remarkable potency. The skeletal system of the Mint Sauce Worm is very simple in the formation of its skeletal system. However, unlike other species of worms, the Mint Sauce Worm lacks an internal cavity that allows for higher movement. This species, like many other acoels, can regenerate itself when damaged, or when a small piece is cut away, because they have a stem cell system of remarkable potency.
