Tubificids are aquatic clitellate worms, but recent analyses of morphological characters suggested that this family, as currently recognized, is paraphyletic. Sequences of the 18S rDNA gene of 40 protostome worm species (including 13 representatives of the Tubificidae) and 2 mollusc species were cladistically analyzed to test the monophyly of the Tubificidae and that of some of its constituent subfamilies. Under all alignments tested, the same general phylogenetic pattern emerged. The data support the idea that the Naididae, another clitellate taxon, is associated with some "rhyacodriline" groups within the Tubificidae. The data also corroborate the idea that the Tubificinae and the Limnodriloidinae are monophyletic but indicate that the Rhyacodrilinae and the Phallodrilinae are not. Bathydrilus does not appear to be closely related to other "phallodriline" genera.
