Summary Introduction
To describe: The distinguishing characteristics of the lophophorates and of the rotifers.
Concept introduction: Lophotrochozoa is one of the two major classes of protozoans that include the bilateral animals. They are triploblastic animals, and most of them have a true coelom and a tube-within-a-tube body plan. Lophotrochozoa includes the platyhelminthes (
