Sentences with OLIGOCHAETA (5)
The muscles are striated and arranged in four quadrants, two dorso-lateral and two ventro-lateral, an arrangement which recalls that of the Nematoda, whilst in their histology they somewhat resemble the muscles of the Oligochaeta.
This is the typical arrangement, which is exhibited in the majority of the Polychaeta and Oligochaeta; in these the successive chambers of the coelom are separated by the intersegmental septa, sheets of muscle fibres extending from the body wall to the gut and thus forming partitions across the body.
Especially are these to be seen in the more modified Oligochaeta and in the much more modified Hirudinea.
Among the Oligochaeta the dorsal vessel in _Dinodrilus_ and _Megascolides_ is enclosed in a separate coelomic chamber which may or may not communicate with the main coelomic cavity.
These two vessels in the Oligochaeta are united in the anterior region of the body by a smaller or greater number of branches which surround the oesophagus and are, some of them at least, contractile and in that case wider than the rest.
