Material examinedOne specimen: KT (1) Sep. 2003.
DiagnosisTube missing.Opercular peduncle smooth, white, with marked constriction.Operculum funnel symmetric, with 46 radii with blunt tips, and concave inner surface, with numerous tiny conical tubercles (Fig. 9A). Collar with bayonet chaetae, with two blunt, short teeth, smooth distal blade. In adult forms, Serpula columbiana has an operculum with 55–160 radii (Fig. 9B) and a symmetric funnel (Kupriyanova 1999).
Taxonomic remarksThe status of Serpula columbiana was resolved by Kupriyanova (1999). It is mainly a sublittoral species that is extremely unlikely to belong to the fouling fauna.
EcologyIntertidal to 60 m. Under stones on the shore-line, in rock-pools (Pixell 1912), and on bottoms with coralline sand and kelp, on shells, cobble and boulders (Bastida-Zavala 2008).
DistributionNortheastern Pacific, from Alaska to southern California (San Diego) (Kupriyanova 1999; Bastida-Zavala 2008). In this work, only one specimen of Serpula columbiana was found on a fouling plate from Ketchikan Bay, Alaska (Fig. 10).
