Locations of Glycera in San Diego, CA?

Are Glycera dibranchiata found anywhere in the intertidal or subtidal regions of San Diego beaches? Which areas?

Update:

The Glycera is also called a bloodworm.

Thank you Sand, but unfortunately,the locations given in the links are in Maine and none give evidence of Glycera in the San Diego county area.

    ADDITION...........

    Dear friend....

    ( I have searched a lot in my books and sites and came to the following conclusion....)

    I am sure that GLYCERA is for sure present in that SAN DIEGO costal regions, but SHOULD it be GLYCERA DIBRANCHIATA? Are you sure? This bloodworms are present there and belongs to species called

    GLYCERA OXYCEPHALA.......

    http://www.sandiego.gov/mwwd/pdf/sbwrp05_11_regben...

    In the included article there is an evident mentioning of this fact......

    And....there are two pdf article I am including beneath.

    In the 1st one, look at page 104 ( 8 of 14).

    Glycera(polychata) is mentioned in cluster group AC and D and then go to the MAP of SAN DIEGO, a page up and see the LOCATION.

    THEN, open the other file. First, see the table about GLYCERA OXYCEPALA (???) but of course it is the bloodworm (GLYCERA), see them in the species table and then go to cluster group C,D, E, F.

    LOOK for the survey station and location in the map.

    PLEASE send me a FEEDBACK, if possible....I beg your pardon.... I don't know you...sorry for fatigue:) Thanks)
