The feathery sea pen (Virgularia schultzei) is a species of sea pen in the family Virgulariidae.

[2][3] Feathery sea pens stand upright in the sand like the quill of a feather.

The central axis has flat branch-like extensions on which the polyps are clustered.

The peduncle is very long and the entire colony can retract into the sand if disturbed.

[4] The Feathery Sea Pen is known from Luderitz in Namibia and round the southern African coast to central Mozambique in 6-222m under water.
