Nereididae
Nereididae (formerly spelled Nereidae) are a family of polychaete worms. It contains about 500 - mostly-marine - species grouped into 42 genera. They may be commonly called ragworms or clamworms. Characteristics The prostomium of Nereididae bears a pair of palps that are differentiated into two units. The proximal unit is much larger than the distal unit. Parapodia are mostly-biramous (only the first two pairs are uniramous). Peristomium fused with the first body-segment, with usually two pairs of tentacular cirri. The first body-segment with 1-2 pairs tentacular cirri without aciculae. Compound setae are present. Notopodia are distinct (rarely reduced), usually with more flattened lobes, notosetae compound falcigers and/or spinigers (rarely notosetae absent). They have two prostomial antennae (absent in ''Micronereis''). Their pharynx, when everted, clearly consists of two portions, with a pair of strong jaws on the distal portion and usually with conical teeth on one or m ...

Phyllodocida
Phyllodocida is an order of polychaete worms in the subclass Aciculata. These worms are mostly marine, though some are found in brackish water. Most are active benthic creatures, moving over the surface or burrowing in sediments, or living in cracks and crevices in bedrock. A few construct tubes in which they live and some are pelagic, swimming through the water column. There are estimated to be more than 4,600 accepted species in the order. Characteristics Phyllodocida are segmented worms and range in size from a few millimetres long to over a metre. Each segment bears a pair of paddle-like parapodia. The prostomium generally has one or two pairs of eyes, a dorsal pair of antennae, a ventral pair of sensory palps and a pair of organs on the neck. The peristomium is a ring, often hidden dorsally by the prostomium and the first segment. There is a muscular proboscis with one or more pairs of jaws. The next few segments tend to differ from those further back in having enlarged d ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
