Types Oligochaeta: Earthworms

and other terrestrial worms; chaetae (chitin bristles), no parapodia

Polychaeta: Marine worms that are free or tube living; parapodia

Hirudinea: Leeches and other flat annelids with no chaetae

Body Formation Annelids are

Coelmates which means that they have a fluid filled cavity completely surrounded by tissue

In mature form, annelids are long with ridged segments in their skin.

Range from 1mm to 3m in length

Digestive & Excretory Has mouth and anus; a digestive

tract extends along length of worm. Metanephridia (same neph as in

nephron of the kidneys in humans) parallel to worm’s digestive tract filter blood and coelomic fluid. Waste secreted through exterior pores

Circulatory Closed circulatory system Many hearts Blood vessels wrap around the digestive tract

in loops

Reproductive System Cross-fertilizing hermaphrodites Secrete mucous cocoon in which embryos

develop Some can also reproduce asexually via

fragmentation

More Facts Earthworms are beneficial to

farmers because castings (egested materials) are valuable as a fertilizer and help recycle soil.

Hirudinea or leeches are still used in medicine today to neatly drain blood from wounds
