Meaning of "nemertina" in English

Nemertina, also known as ribbon worms, refers to a phylum of invertebrate animals typically found in marine environments, although some species inhabit freshwater and terrestrial ecosystems. Members of this phylum are known for their long, slender, and often colorful bodies that can contract and elongate. The hallmark feature of nemertina is the eversible proboscis, a unique and specialized organ used for capturing prey. They play a vital role in their ecosystems as both predators and prey, contributing to the biological diversity of their habitats.
