Entoprocts (Kamptozoa)

Entoprocts (Kamptozoa) is a Browse By group of the Nature Atlas that gathers the entoprocts, also called goblet worms, small mostly sessile aquatic animals that sit on a stalk and gather food with a crown of tentacles. An entry belongs here when its own cited article describes an entoproct or the phylum Entoprocta. It excludes the bryozoans, which were once lumped with them but have a body cavity and a different body plan, and it excludes the lophophorate phyla. The group lets a reader tell the entoprocts apart from the look-alike colonial animals that feed with a ring of tentacles.
