Understanding metazoan phylogeny has been confounded by interpretations of the degree and nature of segmentation in body plans.
The proposed work has two goals: 1) Genomic approaches will be used to reconstruct the early phylogenetic events of the "Annelida", which includes several previously recognized phyla, and 2) Functional genomic techniques will be used to characterize the developmental mechanisms employed in segmentation in several key lineages.
Recent evidence suggests that several non-segmented or partially segmented worm taxa, that were previously regarded as separate phyla, are within the annelid radiation.

In fact, my data indicate that the deep-sea hot vent tube worms and the unsegmented, mud-dwelling echiurids — both groups that have been considered as separate, independent evolutionary lineages — are actually derived annelids with bizarre body forms.
, showed that the Annelida we traditionally define is not a natural group that includes all the descendents from the original annelid ancestor.

 Characteristics of Annelida: Plesiomorphies and Other Features
Annelids also have a variety of epidermal sensory cells that may be responsive to light or touch (such as lateral organs).
This has been challenged by other authors who suggest that nuchal organs may be an apomorphy for Annelida as a whole and have been lost in Clitellata/Oligochaeta (Purschke et al., 2000).
They are present in nearly all polychaetes, and Rouse and Fauchald (1997) suggested that they may represent an apomorphy for Polychaeta.

 The Annelids (Phylum Annelida)
The Phylum Annelida is divided into 3 classes, one of which the Clitellata could really be called a Superclass, it contains three subclasses, the Oligochaeta, the Branchiobdella and the Hirundinea.
Like the classification of all living things the classification of the Annelida is under revision by experts and the current beliefs of scientists are only theories not facts, different schemes may be put forward as we acquire more knowledge.
Like the Oligochaeta from which they are believed to have evolved the Hirundinea occur in Fresh water, marine and terrestrial environments.

 Annelid - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
They are found in most wet environments, and include many terrestrial, freshwater, and especially marine species (such as the often gorgeous polychaetes), as well as some which are parasitic or mutualistic.
The annelids, collectively called Annelida (from Latin annellus "little ring"), are a large phylum of animals, comprising the segmented worms, with about 15 000 modern species including the well-known earthworms and leeches.

 Phylum Annelida
Other hallmarks of the annelids are soft bodies that are round in cross section, repetition of organs in the segemented parts, and a body that is much longer than it is wide.
Below is a list of the phylum Annelida, with each class and the orders of each class (some of these classes, making up a very minor portion of the phylum, have not been described):
Therefore, because a segmented body is advantageous, it evolved twice, with the protosomes, as shown by phyla Annelida and Arthropoda, and again in the deuterosomes, as shown by phylum Chordata.

 INHS Annelida Collection (main)
I also acknowledge our colleagues around the world for regularly sending me reprints of their papers focusing on the Annelida.
Illinois species now deposited in the INHS Annelida Collection include 3 aphanoneurans (1 family, 1 genus), 9 branchiobdellidans (3 families, 6 genera), 86 aquatic or semiaquatic oligochaetes (7 families, 45 genera), 32 leeches (4 families, 19 genera), and at least 22 terrestrial oligochaetes (3 families, 10 genera).
The material in this collection, comprised of 1,600 earthworm specimens representing 22 species, 10 genera, and 3 families, was collected by Dr. Harman from 230 sites in central Illinois during his 1956-1958 survey for his doctoral work at the University of Illinois.

However, they are in different classes - earthworms are in the class Oligochaeta, while Amphitrite are in the class Polychaeta.
The common earthworm (for example, the genus Lumbricus) and the worms in the genus Amphitrite are both in the Phylum Annelida (segmented worms).
