Hexacrobylidae
Sorberacea were a monoorder and monofamilial class of benthic Tunicates. The single order of the class was ''Aspiraculata'', and the single family of that order was ''Hexacrobylidae''. In a taxonomic revision of the Tunicata in 2007, the name "Hexacrobylidae" was declared invalid and members of the family were included in the family Molgulidae in the class Ascidiacea.Sanamyan, K. (2007). Database of extant Ascidiacea. Version of 2 November 2007 They superficially resemble sea squirts but prey on invertebrates such as crustaceans. They also have some unique physical features that distinguish them from the ascidiaceans, including a severely reduced pharynx, the retention of the dorsal nerve cord as adults, the superficial position of their ganglion and the unique histology of the cells of their digestive tracts. The branchial syphon is large and surrounded by six large lobes; the cloacal syphon is small. They live exclusively in deep water and range in size from less than one inch ...

Molgulidae
Molgulidae is a Family (biology), family of tunicates in the Class (biology), class Ascidiacea. Following a revision in 2007, the family Hexacrobylidae was synonymized with Molgulidae. Genera The World Register of Marine Species lists the following Genus, genera: *''Anomopera'' Hartmeyer, 1923 *''Asajirus'' Kott, 1989 *''Bostrichobranchus'' Traustedt, 1883 *''Eugyra'' Alder & Hancock, 1870 *''Fungulus'' Herdman, 1882 *''Gamaster'' Pizon, 1896 *''Minipera'' Monniot & Monniot, 1974 *''Molgula'' Forbes, 1848 *''Molguloides'' Huntsman, 1922 *''Namiella'' Monniot & Monniot, 1968 *''Oligotrema'' Bourne, 1903 *''Paramolgula'' Traustedt, 1835 *''Pareugyrioides'' Hartmeyer, 1914 *''Protomolgula'' Monniot, 1971 *''Rhizomolgula'' Ritter, 1901 References

Nematode
The nematodes ( or grc-gre, Νηματώδη; la, Nematoda) or roundworms constitute the phylum Nematoda (also called Nemathelminthes), with plant-Parasitism, parasitic nematodes also known as eelworms. They are a diverse animal phylum inhabiting a broad range of environments. Less formally, they are categorized as Helminths, but are taxonomically classified along with Arthropod, arthropods, Tardigrade, tardigrades and other moulting animalia, animals in the clade Ecdysozoa, and unlike platyhelminthe, flatworms, have tubular digestion, digestive systems with openings at both ends. Like tardigrades, they have a reduced number of Hox genes, but their sister phylum Nematomorpha has kept the ancestral protostome Hox genotype, which shows that the reduction has occurred within the nematode phylum. Nematode species can be difficult to distinguish from one another. Consequently, estimates of the number of nematode species described to date vary by author and may change rapidly over ...

Tunicates
A tunicate is a marine invertebrate animal, a member of the subphylum Tunicata (). It is part of the Chordata, a phylum which includes all animals with dorsal nerve cords and notochords (including vertebrates). The subphylum was at one time called Urochordata, and the term urochordates is still sometimes used for these animals. They are the only chordates that have lost their myomeric segmentation, with the possible exception of the 'seriation of the gill slits'. Some tunicates live as solitary individuals, but others replicate by budding and become colonies, each unit being known as a zooid. They are marine filter feeders with a water-filled, sac-like body structure and two tubular openings, known as siphons, through which they draw in and expel water. During their respiration and feeding, they take in water through the incurrent (or inhalant) siphon and expel the filtered water through the excurrent (or exhalant) siphon. Most adult tunicates are sessile, immobile and perman ...
