Major Phyla:

Porifera Coelenterata Mollusca Echinodermata

Platyhelminthes AnnelidaNematoda Arthropoda

INVERTEBRATES:

Porifera Once thought of as

being plants because they are sessile, these porous animals filter the water for food particles.

Sponge can be found both in freshwater and in saltwater.

Coelenterata Most of the animals

in this phylum have hollow, sac-like bodies and stinging tentacles.

Members include coral, sea anemones, jellyfish and hydra.

MOLLUSCA These are the soft-bodied

animals. Besides being known for their fleshy bodies, mollusks usually have protective outer shells.

Flat Worms Some may be free-

living while others are harmful parasites

Examples include tapeworms, flukes and the harmless planaria

Nematoda Better known as round

worms, many nematodes are important as decomposers while others are dangerous parasites in humans and our pets.

Nematodes include heartworms, hookworms, trichina worms, guinea worms...

ANNELIDA These are the

segmented worms. Examples include

earthworms, marine sand worms, and leeches.
