The Acoel Flatworm

Waminoa brickneri is a worm from the Convolutidae family, which belongs to the Acoelomorpha strain. While the majority of acoels live in marine sediments, some, usually identified as Waminoa sp., have been found associated with corals, living closely appressed to their external surfaces.
