Topic: Enteropneusta


In the News (Fri 5 Dec 08)

  
 [No title]
In accordance with this view there would be also some probability in favour of regarding the collar nerve-tube of the Enteropneusta as the equivalent of the cerebral vesicle only of Amphioxus and the Asridian tadpole, and also of the primary fore-brain of vertebrates.
The remaining two families of Enteropneusta, Ptychoderidae and Spengelidae, contain species of which probably all pursue an indirect course of development, culminating in a metamorphosis by which the adult form is attained.
It is within the bounds of possibility that Tornaria actually does indicate a remote affinity on the part of the Enteropneusta to the Echinoderms, not only on account of its external form, but also by reason of the possession of a dorsal water-pore communicating with the anterior body-cavity.

 The Metazoa
In fact, the larva of Balanoglossus (the sole representative of the Enteropneusta) was originally described by Muller, under the name of Tornaria, as an Echinoderm larva; and was subsequently more fully examined by Prof.
In Balanoglossus, as in the echinoderms, it appears that saccular outgrowths of the intestine give rise to the perivisveral cavity and its walls; and, if such be the case, thes mesoblast will be chiefly, if not wholly, represented by diverticula of the alimentary canal.
Thus in the Choetognatha and echinodermata, and possibly in the Enteropneusta, the perivisceral cavity is a portion of the alimentary cavity shut off from the rest; and, in contradistinction to the Schizocoela, in which the perivisceral cavity is produced by a splitting of the mesoblast, they may be said to be Enterocoela.

 Hemichordata - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A hollow neural tube exists among some species (at least in early life), probably a primitive trait they share with the common ancestor of chordata and the rest of the deuterostomes.
Hemichordata are divided into two classes: the Enteropneusta, commonly called acorn worms, and the Pterobranchia, which may include the graptolites.
A third class, Planctosphaeroidea, is proposed based on a single species known only from larvae.

The hemichordates include the class Enteropneusta (acorn worms) and the class Pterobranchia.
There are about 80 living species of Enteropneusta, which are marine and mostly intertidal organisms that live buried in fine sediments or under rocks.
They are ciliary mucus suspension feeders (a mucus net is formed among their extended tentacles, and as organic particles are trapped in the mucus the entire mass is slowly swept by cilia into the mouth).

 The Hemichordates (Phylum Hemichordata)
This is a modified proboscis and in many species it is short, it is these species that have given the Hemichordates their common name of 'Acorn Worms'.
The protosome is followed by a 'collar' which bears tentacles in the Pterobranchia but not in the Enteropneusta.
The phylum is divided into two classes, the Pterobranchia and the Enteropneusta.

Although hemichordates lack a notochord, they do exhibit 2 other chordate characteristics: pharyngeal gill slits and, in some species, a dorsal, hollow nerve cord.
Most of the 85 hemichordate species belong to the class Enteropneusta.
The enteropneusts are common inhabitants of shallow water, with most species forming mucus-lined burrows in sandy or muddy sediment.

Classification - The Hemichordata are divided into three classes:  Class Enteropneusta (acorn worms), Class Pterobranchia, and Class Graptolithina.
The Graptolithina are an extinct group that resembled the Pterobranchia.
Morphology - The Enteropneusta are worm like and have three body regions.

 Introduction to the Hemichordata
This is supported by the fact that the larvae of at least some hemichordates look very much like those of some echinoderms.
Of the three classes of hemichordates, the most familiar living ones are the Enteropneusta, the acorn worms.

They also have some resemblance to echinoderms, and have thus been assigned to their own phylum.
The phylum is divided into but two classes, the Pterobranchia and the Enteropneusta (acorn worms).
Class Pterobranchia, whose extant members are tiny deep-sea creatures, form colonies by secreting a collagenous exoskeleton.
