Abstract

Determination of higher-order taxonomy of polychaetes (grouping of families into superfamilies and orders). Establishment of relationships between 3 classes of annelid (Polychaeta; Oligochaeta and Hirudinea) and of these with archiannelids. Clarification of relationships between annelids and other phyla, particularly the lophophorates.
