Taxonomy

Phylum: Priapulida

Class: uncertain

Order:uncertain

Family: Selkirkiidae

Genus:Paraselkirkia

Specie: Paraselkirkia sinica

Description: 

Specimens with a fully everted proboscis can reach 1.3 cm long, with a proboscis over 3mm in length and a tube about 1 cm long. The proboscis is divisible into several parts (stages), each characterized by spines of a particular size, morphology, and array, or by a lack of them. The tube is narrow, elongate, and tapers posteriorly. Its wide end is flat and circular, with a diameter less than 2mm; its narrower end terminates in a blunt point. The surface of the tube bears fine, regularly spaced annulations. The soft trunk of the worm is concealed inside the tube, but the trace of the gut is often still evident through the tube. The gut is dark, flat, and straight and extends from the mouth opening to the posterior end of the tube, where an anal opening presumably exists.
