  1. class onychophora

    Onychophora, also known as velvet worms, is a relatively small class of soft-bodied, terrestrial invertebrates with ancestry tracing back over 500 million years. This class contains roughly 200 species, all characterized by their elongated, caterpillar-like bodies, numerous pairs of stubby, unjointed legs, antennae, and slime glands. They lack a mineralized skeleton and their body cavity is filled with fluid which helps them maintain body structure. They are predominantly found in tropical regions of the Southern hemisphere, inhabiting leaf litter and logs.
