Wijnhoff?s scheme (1936) that was based on Schultze?s (1851) division of the taxon into the two classes Anopla and Enopla. In August 2018, the 9th International Conference of Nemertean Biology took place in the Wadden Sea Station of the Alfred Wegener Institute in List auf Sylt, Germany. At this meeting, the community reached consensus to revise nemertean taxonomy at the class level, based on the compiled evidence from studies on nemertean systematics published in the last 15 years (Andrade et al., 2014, 2012 ; Thollesson & Norenburg, 2003). Previous classifications (e.g., Stiasny‐ Wijnhoff, 1936) are not based on phylogenetic grounds, and the use of these names is therefore nowadays not wholly informative. We conclude that the ranks Anopla and Enopla should be eliminated.
