Annelids
• Phylum Annelida – “little ring” – segmented body• Round worm-like animal that has a long, segmented
body• Sizes range from .5mm to 3m• True coelom lined with mesoderm• “tube-within-a-tube” digestive tract – mouth to anus• Segments separated by internal walls celled septa. Most
segments are identical, some modified

Anatomy of an Earthworm
Feeding in Annelids
• Filter feeders to predators• Pharynx – very muscular, may be armed
with jaws (predators and herbivores), may be sticky (mucus, detritus feeders), act like a pump (deposit feeders and parasites)
• Mucus bag – filter feeders• Feather-like structures – filter feeders• Pharynx – esophagus – crop (storage) –
gizzard (ground up) – intestine
Circulation in Annelids
• Closed circulatory system – blood contained within blood vessels
• Blood moves toward the head (dorsal vessel)• Blood moves away from the head (ventral
vessel)• Ring vessels in each segment connect dorsal to
ventral vessels• Vessels act as “hearts” which help pump blood
through the system
Respiration in Annelids
• Gills – aquatic
• Skin – must stay moist, secrete cuticle (earthworm)
Excretion in Annelids
• Solid wastes pass through the anus
• Waste from cellular metabolism eliminated by nephridia
Response in Annelids
• Brain and several nerve cords• Ventral nerve runs entire length of body• Sense organs most often found in polychaetes
– True eyes that see shapes, Statocysts, chemical receptors, sensory tentacles, vibration sensors
• Defense, runaway and hide, a few fight with jaws (sandworm)– Marine fireworms have irritating bristles
Movement in Annelids
• Muscles– Longitudinal – lengthwise – make worm
longer and shorter– Circular – make worm fatter and skinnier
Reproduction in Annelids
• Most reproduce sexually
• External (broadcast) spawners – worms swarm to surface to spawn by millions
• Some hermaphrodites – exchange sperm; clitellum secretes mucus ring containing eggs and sperm which forms cocoon (earthworm)
Groups of Annelids
• Three classes of Annelids– Class Oligochaete– Class Polychaete– Class Hirudinea
Class Oligochaetes
• Few “bristles” – few setae
• Earthworms and tubifex worms
• Deposit feeders, eat dirt and produce “castings” – aerate and fertilize the soil
• Tropical earthworms produce castings 18cm long and 2cm in diameter
• Soil or freshwater
Examples of Class Oligochaetes
Class Polychaetes
• Many “bristles”
• Paired, paddle-like, appendages tipped with bristles (setae) (sea mouse)
• Live in all sorts of marine habitats
• Some free-living, some tube-builders
• May be brightly colored, iridescent, or luminescent
Examples of Class Polychaetes
Class Hirudinea
• Most parasitic, some carnivorous, most freshwater
• 6cm to 30cm long, two suckers, one at each end
• Penetrate skin by use of proboscis or sharp jaws
• Produce secretions that prevent clotting and anesthetizes wound
• Can swallow ten times its weight
Examples of Class Hirudinea

Mollusks
Phylum Mollusca
• Phylum Mollusca– 100,000 species– Most share trocophor larval stage (free-
swimming larval stage)– Defined as soft-bodied animals that have an
internal or external shell

Form and Function in Mollusks
• Body Plan – four parts: mantle, foot, shell, visceral mass– Mantle – thin layer of tissue that covers most
of the mollusk body – contains shell glands– Foot – movement, mouth, and associated
feeding structures– Shell – protection– Visceral mass – contains all organs

Feeding in Mollusks
• Herbivores, carnivores, or filter feeders• Radula – found in snails and slugs – rasp-like
tongue– Herbivores scrape food– Predators drill shells or “dart” food
• Cephalopods – beaks• Clams, oysters, scallops – filter feeders use gills• Octopi use siphon (tube-like structure) to trap
plankton
Respiration in Mollusks
• Gills in mantle cavity in aquatic species
• Modified mantle in terrestrial species
Circulation in Mollusks
• Open circulatory system – blood flows through vessels and “sinuses” (open spaces) (clams and snails)
• Closed circulatory system – blood always flows inside vessels (cephalopods)
Excretion in Mollusks
• Remove ammonia with use of tube-shaped organs called nephridia
Response in Mollusks
• Simple to very complex nervous systems (scallops, octopi)
• Cephalopods, highly evolved eyes and brains
Movement in Mollusks
• Mucus in snails and slugs
• Jet propulsion in octopi
Reproduction in Mollusks
• In most mollusks, sexes are separate, broadcast spawners
• Cephalopods, internal fertilization
• Some gastropods are hermaphroditic
Groups of Mollusks
• Three classes of mollusks– Class Gastropoda– Class Bivalvia– Class Cephalopoda
Class Gastropoda
• “stomach foot”
• Snails, slugs, abalones, nudibranchs
• Some snails have operculum (hard disk on foot that forms a “door” when inside shell)
• Nudibranchs feed on cnidarians; utilize nematocysts for their own defense
• Bright colors mean bad taste or even poison
Examples of Class Gastropoda
Class Bivalvia
• “two shell”
• Clams, oysters, scallops
• Most are sessile– Epifaunal – on top of bottom (oyster, mussels)– Infaunal – in bottom (clams)
• Some are motile – scallops can move by flapping shells and have eyespots (Ocelli)
Scallop Swimming
Examples of Class Bivalvia
Class Cephalopoda
• “head foot”
• Squid, octopus, cuttlefish, nautilus
• Predators, beak for mouth
• Seem to be intelligent
• Move quickly via jet propulsion
• Little or no shell
• Highly developed eyes and brains
Examples of Class Cephalopoda
Ecology of Mollusks
• Fried calamari
• Shipworms
• aquaculture

FOOT
Muscular foot located on ventral side and used for movement
Burrowing species have muscular foot. Surface-dwelling species have either no foot or a “reduced” foot.
Head is attached to a single foot. The foot is divided into tentacles or arms.
