Definition of Chaetognatha in English: Chaetognathaplural noun ˌkiːtəɡˈnaθəˌkiːtəɡˈneɪθəkēˈtäɡnəTHə Zoology A small phylum of marine invertebrates that comprises the arrow worms. Example sentencesExamples - Also unresolved are the phylogenetic positions of Cycloneuralia, Chaetognatha, Gnathostomulida, Cycliophora, and Micrognathozoa.
- Also absent are the Chaetognatha (arrow-worms), which have been considered the basalmost branch of the Deuterostomia in the past, but are currently regarded by many as basal protostomes.
- Nielsen and Nielsen et al. come to generally comparable results, although sometimes the additional taxa Rotifera, Acanthocephala and Chaetognatha were included in Aschelminthes.
- Pelagic species were from the Chaetognatha, Cnidaria, Crustacea, Ctenophora, and Mollusca, and benthic species were from the Chordata, Crustacea, Mollusca, and Echinodermata.
- Instead, Rouse's conclusion that ‘groups such as the Arthropoda, Brachiopoda, Chaetognatha, Ectoprocta, Gastrotricha, Phoronida may have lost a prototroch’ is totally gratuitous, and remains unaddressed by his own data.
Derivatives noun ˈkiːtəɡnaθ Zoology On the other hand, one species of parasitic nematode can reach 13 meters in length - it parasitizes the sperm whale - and adult nematomorphs, chaetognaths, and some priapulids are also visible to the naked eye. Example sentencesExamples - Perversely, they failed to include any sequences from rotifers, gnathostomulids, chaetognaths, or, in fact, anything that might actually be comparable to Acanthocephala.
- Thus, characters shared by chaetognaths and chordates are only those shared by all triploblastic metazoans and resolution of affinities depends upon adopting a preferred hypothesis of relationship.
- Into the early 1990s most researchers and evidence suggested that the deuterostomes were composed of chordates, hemichordates, echinoderms, chaetognaths, and lophophorates.
- In the cnidarians, chaetognaths, and ctenophores, the opaque gut wall was the surface measured.
