You will never forget the flatworm once you have looked into its eyes. These apparently
"cross eyed" animals live in weedy ponds, in slow moving streams, and in the
smallest creeks. |

Introduction to
Nematoda: The Roundworms There are thousands of nematodes. Not only are
there more than 15,000 known species of roundworms, but there are many thousands of
individual nematodes in even a single handful of garden soil. And they keep coming! Some
species of roundworm may contain more than 27 million eggs at one time and lay more than
200,000 of them in a single day. |

Creatures of the
Thermal Vents The giant tube worm is one of the most conspicuous members
of a diverse community that forms around hydrothermal vents. Scientists once thought that
no living thing could survive the harsh combination of toxic chemicals, high temperatures,
high pressures, and total darkness at these vents. |
