Description:The non-indigenous sabellid polychaete Branchiomma coheni Tovar-Hernández and Knight-Jones, 2006, has been collected in the estuarine waters of Morrosquillo at Bahía Cispatá, in Ciénaga Grande de Santa Marta on mangrove roots, and in La Escollera, Gaira, in oyster spat collectors. This species is representative of a fouling community in mangrove roots and lives together with other invertebrates. This is the first record of B. coheni from the Caribbean coast of Colombia.
