🪱Lineus longissimus
El gusano cordón de bota (Lineus longissimus) es una especie de nemertino del orden Heteronemertea. Es uno de los animales más largos de la Tierra. Ciertos especímenes hallados en la costa, al ser desenrollados (pues suelen estar así al estar expuestos en la bajamar), llegan a medir hasta aproximadamente 55 m (180′ 5″). Es considerado el animal más largo del mundo. Tiene un cuerpo flácido y frágil de color parduzco, con líneas claras que lo recorren longitudinalmente y algo baboso. Su mucosa es tóxica.
