TL;DR Summary

Two new species of four-eyed worms, Parahesione pulvinata and Parahesione apiculata, have been discovered in sandy burrows on a beach in Japan. These bright-red worms, measuring between 12 and 20mm in length, have four eyes and unique physical characteristics. They rely on a symbiotic relationship with ghost shrimp to survive in low-oxygen environments. These findings highlight the vast number of undiscovered species in the ocean, with over 80 percent of the ocean floor remaining unexplored.
