    I think it is some kind of Centipede or Millipede. but a water species of course. I was hopping some marine biologist would have some input.

    I don't know if we even have one here. If we do, they have not stated such....as far as I can remember.

    Maybe it would help if you gave some more info on where and when you found it. Time of year, and even day, water temp. Anything that could narrow it down.

    Sorry but I don't think it is. The description of that species does not mention legs. ??? I photographed this one at West Point of Povo in the Turks & Caicos at about 40 to 45 feet in scattered coral, sand and rubble. It was 12 to 14 inches long! Smooth body segmented. DC is there a way to post the picture here with HTML?
