Chaetopteridae View in CoL

The affiliation of the tube dwelling chaetopterids to sedentarian annelids (especially to Spionida and Canalipalpata respectively by Rouse and Fauchald (1997)) was proposed by many researchers and a more basal branching position indicated by different molecular studies was discussed and believed to be an artifact ( Struck et al. 2007; Bleidorn et al. 2009b; Zrzavy et al. 2009; Dordel et al. 2010; Eibye-Jacobsen and Vinther 2012). However, the basal branching position became stable and robustly supported once more species and molecular data were incorporated in the analyses ( Struck et al. 2011; Weigert et al. 2014; Andrade et al. 2015).
