Annelid Resources
Annelida is the phylum associated with annelids. Annelids include any type of worm with segmentation of its body, such as leeches and earthworms. These worms often live in environments with a high level of moisture or water content, including beneath sheds and summer houses. There are some, such as the leech, that live primarily in the water and find substance from animals in the water. Scientists who study these worms should find some of the following resources helpful.
