The striking similarity between this sperm and that of some 'primitive' annelids, as well as an overall similarity with filiform sperm of some other invertebrate groups including basal flatworms, indicates homology and an ancient link between these groups that includes internal fertilization. This idea is supported by geological, palaeontological and reproductive data, but contradicts the widely accepted theory that early Bilateria were free-spawning, triploblastic organisms with planktotrophic larvae.FootnotesThis text was harvested from a scanned image of the original document using optical character recognition (OCR) software.
