'Sea Sweet Potatoes' Are a Thing
- "According to Dr. Mah, these critters are known as Molpadia (Caudina) arenicola, or more adorably as the ‘sea sweet potato’. Sea sweet potatoes, like many sea cucumbers (this conversation is getting vegetable-y) live on the seafloor, and their tracks are visible in some of the photos taken by local beach goers." - excerpt from post at Deep Sea News.
