Naididae
The Naididae (including the former family Tubificidae) are a family of clitellate oligochaete worms like the sludge worm, ''Tubifex tubifex''. They are key components of the benthic communities of many freshwater and marine ecosystems. In freshwater aquaria they may be referred to as detritus worms. Description These worms can vary in size, from centimeters to millimeters, depending on the subfamily. They are all hermaphroditic and lack a larval stage. Taxonomy Analysis of 18S rDNA sequences revealed that the tradition family Tubificidae is not monophyletic, with the traditionally circumscribed Naididae nested within tubidicid taxa. To avoid paraphyly the naidid and tubificid taxa were included in a combined family, which took the name Naididae because it has priority under ''International Code of Zoological Nomenclature'' rules as the senior synonym of Tubificidae. A proposal to the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature to suppress Naididae, because the "tubifi ...
