Annelid Characteristics
Definition
- coelomates
- hydrostatic skeleton
- long bodies made up of segments
- head:
- prostomium (first segment of body)
- mouth
- peristomium (first segment after mouth, part of head)
- pygidium (tail)
- circular and longitudinal muscle
- cuticle
- setae (chaetae, bristles)
- sometimes parapodia
Term
Polycheata

POLYCHAETE WORMS
- mostly marine
- have fleshy protuberances called parapodium
- 1 pair of parapodium per segment
- parapodium have many bristles
- appendages in the head region
- ex: Nereis sp. (bristle worms)
