- Construct a dichotomous key for Chaetognatha families: Family Spadellidae - Littoral, usually resting on algae, stones or other objects on the bottom, but retaining the ability of creeping and swimming. Tail segment is relatively large. One or two pairs of lateral fins. Anterior and posterior rows of teeth, which show a trend to the degeneration. Corona ciliata on the neck, wider than long. Family Eukrohniidae - Pelagic, tail segment is comparatively short. One pair of lateral fins, each beginning far anterior to the trunk-tail septum. Anterior tooth-row or both anterior and posterior tooth-rows may be missing in some genera.
