Thus there arises a polysegmental condition, which in manypoints still largely retains rotiferan characters. Such existsnow in that simple group of fresh-water annelids, the Aph-aneura, which A. Sedgwick has suggested should be placedamongst the Archiannelida. It along with Dinophilus sug-gests that many genera once existed which formed graded andperfect transitions from primitive rotiferan and trochophoretypes to planarian worms on the one hand, and to highly seg-mented annelidans on the other.
