Tardigrades

Description


Rotifers and tardigrades (water bears) are tiny bilateral animals; most live in damp habitats or fresh water

An ability to enter a dormant state allows some to survive in an environment that often dries out

Rotifers have a pseudocoelom, but genetic comparisons suggest they are closest to annelids and mollusks

Tardigrades have a coelom and molt; they are probably relatives of the roundworms and insects
