Here we report the first finding of a frenulate pogonophoran (Annelida, Siboglinidae) in the southern part of the Kara Sea. This finding was made in the Yenisei Gulf in the region of the highest methane concentrations, resulting from the degradation of permafrost under the influence of river flow. It has been suggested that pogonophorans are indicators of hydrocarbon manifestations of various genesis.

Background: Vestimentiferan tubeworms are deep-sea colonizers, in which chemoautotrophic symbiosis was first observed. These animals are gutless and depend on endosymbiotic bacteria for organic compound synthesis and nutrition supply. Taxonomically, vestimentiferans belong to Siboglinidae and Annelida.

Most species of the bone-devouring marine annelid, display distinct sexual dimorphism with macroscopic sedentary females rooted in bones and free-living microscopic dwarf males. The paedomorphic male resembles the non-feeding metatrochophore larva in size, presence of eight pairs of chaetae, and a head ciliation potentially representing a residual prototroch. The male development may thus uniquely reiterate and validate the theoretical heterochrony process "progenesis", which suggests that an accelerated sexual maturation and early arrest of somatic growth can lead to a miniaturized and paedomorphic adult.

First described in 2004 off California, worms are now known from many of the world's oceans, ranging from 10 to over 4000 m in depth. Currently, little is known about species ranges, since most descriptions are from single localities. In this study, we used new sampling in the north-eastern Pacific and available GenBank data from off Japan and Brazil to report expanded ranges for five species: , , , and .
