@ARTICLE{TreeBASE2Ref16944, author = {K. J. Osborn and G. W. Rouse}, title = {Multiple origins of pelagicism within Flabelligeridae (Annelida)}, year = {2008}, keywords = {}, doi = {}, url = {}, pmid = {}, journal = {Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution}, volume = {}, number = {}, pages = {}, abstract = {The phylogenetic position of Flota, currently within Flotidae, is of interest because it, along with Poeobius meseres, is one of only a few non-phyllodocid, pelagic annelids. Poeobius meseres was recently shown to be part of Flabelligeridae and flotids have also been allied to Flabelligeridae. Our results show that Flota is nested among flabelligerids based on partial sequences of five genes, thus making Flotidae a junior synonym of Flabelligeridae. Relationships within Flabelligeridae show that Poeobius and Flota are not sister groups. They are only distantly related within the family and so pelagicism has arisen twice within Flabelligeridae.} }
