The 26 pages that link to Chelicerata, each with the reason it gives.
InsectCompared with: Chelicerates lack insect antennae and do not have the insect body plan.
ArachnidNarrower topic: Arachnids belong to this broader group, whose members lack antennae.
ScorpionRelated: Scorpions are chelicerates, distinguished from insects by their mouthparts and body organization.
CheliceraNarrower topic: Chelicerae are the defining first appendages of this arthropod group.
Horseshoe crabNarrower topic: Horseshoe crabs share this lineage with arachnids, not true crabs.
OpisthosomaNarrower topic: The opisthosoma is one of the two main body regions defining the typical chelicerate body plan.
TrilobiteCompared with: Chelicerates are another major arthropod lineage, distinct from trilobites.
PancrustaceaCompared with: Chelicerates are a major arthropod lineage separate from Pancrustacea.
AcariNarrower topic: Acari inherits its defining chelicerae from this broader arthropod lineage.
ArthropodaBroader topic: This lineage groups arachnids with horseshoe crabs and sea spiders.
ProsomaNarrower topic: The prosoma is the anterior body region shared across this group.
EurypteridNarrower topic: Eurypterids belong to this arthropod lineage, whose members lack antennae and bear chelicerae.
Arthropod phylogenyRelated: Its relationship to other living arthropod lineages helps define the main alternatives for the arthropod tree.
TelsonCompared with: The telson appears in distinct forms across chelicerates, including the horseshoe crab's non-venomous spine and the scorpion's sting-bearing segment.
Arachnid phylogenyNarrower topic: Arachnids must be placed among these broader chelicerate lineages.
Sea spiderCompared with: Sea spiders are often placed among chelicerates, though their precise evolutionary position remains debated.
AmblypygiNarrower topic: Amblypygids inherit chelicerae and other traits from this larger lineage.
Evolution of spidersNarrower topic: This larger lineage situates spider origins among ancient arthropod branches.
JaekelopterusNarrower topic: Eurypterids, including Jaekelopterus, are part of this broader evolutionary branch.
PalpigradiNarrower topic: This broader arthropod group includes Arachnida, the class containing Palpigradi.
TrigonotarbidaNarrower topic: This broader group includes arachnids and establishes trigonotarbids' evolutionary placement.
XiphosuraNarrower topic: Xiphosurans are chelicerates, sharing this defining appendage arrangement with spiders and scorpions.
MegarachneNarrower topic: Eurypterids and spiders share this broader arthropod lineage.
UropygiNarrower topic: Uropygi belong to this larger lineage, characterized by chelicerae rather than antennae.
Arthropod antennaeCompared with: Chelicerates lack antennae, unlike insects, crustaceans, and myriapods.
EurypterusNarrower topic: Its body plan places Eurypterus among chelicerate arthropods.
