Study Notes

Annelida Phylum

  • Characteristic features of Annelids
    • Bodies have a series of repeating segments (metamerism)
    • Segmented body parts have muscle tissue, nerves, excretory organs
    • External body covering is called cuticle, which serves as a protective layer and facilitates gas exchange.
    • Chaetae (bristles/setae) for locomotion and support
    • Parapodia are present in some species (used for swimming and crawling)
    • Some species have eyes and sensory tentacles.
  • Polychaetes (marine worms)
    • Many setae for locomotion and gas exchange
    • Parapodia aid in movement
    • Eyes and sensory tentacles on the head
    • Active, mobile predators (Errantia) or filter feeders (Sedentaria)
    • Build protective tubes using sand grains, mud, or calcium carbonate
  • Oligochaetes (earthworms)
    • No parapodia, fewer setae
    • Simple head without eyes or tentacles
    • Mostly terrestrial or freshwater
    • Locomotion via peristaltic waves (muscle contractions)
    • Hermaphroditic
    • Important role in soil aeration and nutrient mixing through feeding and burrowing in the soil
  • Hirudinida (leeches)
    • No setae
    • Posterior sucker for attachment
    • Mostly ectoparasites feeding on vertebrate or invertebrate blood.
    • Secrete anticoagulants during feeding.
    • Some species have 3 toothed jaws to cut into host skin.
    • Hermaphroditic with internal fertilization
    • Used in medicine for improving blood flow and removing clots.
