Laboratory-reared Sabellaria vulgaris larvae metamorphosed in 19-30 days. Metamorphosis involved a loss of provisional setae, anterior rotation of larval tentacles and opercular cirri and a reduction of the episphere. After metamorphosis and settlement, juveniles built tubes, lost their larval pigmentation and ciliary bands and added new abdominal segments.
