Using a phylogenetic backbone, we propose a scenario in which the Tapeworms are a group of parasitic flatworms whose uniquely segmented body plan has raised questions regarding their anteroposterior polarity and homology to other animals for more than a century.

Anterior morphogenesis was similar to that previously reported for spionids, with wound healing, blastema formation, differentiation of segments, and formation of feeding and sensory structures (mouth, palps, nuchal organs) occurring within 14 d. Unlike in some spionids, the segments do not appear to all form simultaneously from the blastema; rather, external differentiation of segments was observed from posterior to anterior on the regenerate. backbone of the tree of life. entiated neurons in the developing annelid brain, with the most apical cells located at the base of, all expressed in the developing forebrain of, toreceptors.
