The genus and two nominal species were described from the west coast of Sweden, but their taxonomic placement remains unstable. Limited evidence placed <i>Xenoturbella</i> with molluscs, but the tissues can be contaminated with prey. They were then considered deuterostomes. Further taxon sampling and analysis have grouped <i>Xenoturbella</i> with acoelomorphs (=Xenacoelomorpha) as sister to all other Bilateria (=Nephrozoa), or placed Xenacoelomorpha inside Deuterostomia with Ambulacraria (Hemichordata?+?Echinodermata). Here we describe four new species of <i>Xenoturbella</i> and reassess those hypotheses. A large species (>20?cm long) was found at cold-water hydrocarbon seeps at 2,890?m depth in Monterey Canyon and at 1,722?m in the Gulf of California (Mexico). A second large species (~10?cm long) also occurred at 1,722?m in the Gulf of California. The third large species (~15?cm long) was found at ~3,700?m depth near a newly discovered carbonate-hosted hydrothermal vent in the Gulf of California. Finally, a small species (~2.5?cm long), found near a whale carcass at 631?m depth in Monterey Submarine Canyon (California), resembles the two nominal species from Sweden. Analysis of whole mitochondrial genomes places the three larger species as a sister clade to the smaller Atlantic and Pacific species. Phylogenomic analyses of transcriptomic sequences support placement of Xenacoelomorpha as sister to Nephrozoa or Protostomia.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"New deep-sea species of <i>Xenoturbella</i> and the position of Xenacoelomorpha","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-04-18 01:31:45.080870","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":null,"OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2016,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2018-02-13","DateCreate":"2016-02-05","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000369304500039","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0,"DOI":"10.1038/nature16545"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":252701,"PubliDate":2016,"Pagination":"94-97","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"530","Issue":"7588","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":43431,"SerRR":"Nature: International Weekly Journal of Science.
