Flabelligeridae is a family of polychaete worms, known as bristle-cage worms, notable for their cephalic cage: long slender chaetae forming a fan-like arrangement surrounding the eversible (able to be turned inside-out) head.[1][2] Unlike many polychaetes, they also have large, pigmented, complex eyes.[3][4]
