Nemertodermatidae

Nemertodermatidae is a family of wormlike animals in the phylum Acoelomorpha. They are similar to the flatworms of the phylum Platyhelminthes, and were traditionally classified as such.

  • Nemertinoides
    • Nemertinoides elongatus Riser 1987

    • Nemertoderma bathycola Steinböck 1930
    • Nemertoderma westbladi (Westblad) Steinbock, 1938
