 Comments
       
  Comment: The former phylum Echiura/Echiurida is now considered to be within the polychaetes (although we still await the productiuon & stabilization of an updated classification with traditional ranks that include Echiura, Sipuncula and the former Pogonophora & Vestimentifera within Polychaeta)
