Nemertea analyses by molecular phylogeny are confident that members of Lophotrochozoa are more closely related to each other than of non-members, the relationships between members are mostly unclear. Most protostome phyla outside the Lophotrochozoa are members of Ecdysozoa ("animals that molt"), which include Arthropoda, Nematoda and Priapulida. Most other bilaterian phyla are in the Deuterostomia, which include Echinodermata and Chordata. The Acoelomorpha, which are neither protostomes nor deuterostomes, are regarded as basal bilaterians. Nemertea Nemertea is a phylum of invertebrate animals also known as "ribbon worms" or "proboscis worms". Alternative names for the phylum have included Nemertini, Nemertinea and Rhynchocoela. Although
Branching order of bacterial phyla (Woese, 1987) was not based on molecular phylogeny. Eukaryotes are a mosaic of different lineages: Consequently, in Woese (1987) the group is referred to as urkaryote. The clade composed of Archaea and the nuclear genome of eukaryotes is called Neomura by T. Cavalier-Smith Branching order of bacterial phyla (Woese, 1987) There are several models of the Branching order of bacterial phyla, one of these was proposed in 1987 paper by Carl Woese. The branching order proposed by Carl Woese was based on molecular phylogeny, which was considered revolutionary as all preceding models were based on discussions of morphology. ("v." Monera). Several models
