Swima bombiviridis
''Swima bombiviridis'' is a worm species that lives in the deep ocean. It is also known as the Green Bomber Worm or Bombardier Worm. This deep ocean pelagic (free-swimming) annelid has modified bioluminescent gills that can be cast off from an individual. These discarded gills somewhat resemble green "bombs" that remain illuminated for several seconds after they have been discarded. It is thought that this is a defensive mechanism rather than reproductive, as it is seen in both mature and juvenile individuals.〔 This species was the first of its genus, ''Swima'', to be discovered, and was the only one with a formal scientific name as of 2010. The genus name, ''Swima'', is derived from the Latin, referring to the animal's ability to swim. The species name, ''bombiviridis'', is derived from the Latin prefix ''bombus'', meaning humming or buzzing (from which the English word bomb is derived), and the suffix ''viridis'', which is Latin for the color green. ''Swima bombiviridis'' therefore translates to "swimming green bomber".
