External Features of Rotifers
Rotiferan body has a head, trunk, and tail (foot); except for
the corona, it is nonciliated and covered in cuticle.
Corona can have sensory bristles (papillae), a midventral
mouth and coronal cilia use for swimming and feeding.
Trunk may be elongated or saclike with sensory antennae.
• Body wall may be superficially ringed, appearing
segmented.
• Have a fibrous layer in the epidermis.
• Some have thick fibrous layer called lorica arranged as
plates or rings.
Foot may have 1 to 4 toes with pedal glands for attachment.
• Reduced in swimming pelagic forms.
© McGraw Hill 103
Examples of Rotifers
No respiratory system.
When present, excretory system has simple protonephridia
with flame cells.
Nervous system and sense organs are reduced.
• Has central ganglia within the proboscis receptacle
connecting to sensory nerves on the proboscis and body.
• Sensory endings on proboscis and genital bursa.
No digestive tract; absorb nutrients through tegument.
• Require host dietary carbohydrates.
• Form a metabolic “sink” for glucose.
