Difference between Acanthocephala and Arthropod

Acanthocephala vs. Arthropod

Acanthocephala (Greek ἄκανθος, akanthos 'thorn' + κεφαλή, kephale 'head') is a group of parasitic worms known as acanthocephalans, thorny-headed worms, or spiny-headed worms, characterized by the presence of an eversible proboscis, armed with spines, which it uses to pierce and hold the gut wall of its host. Arthropods are invertebrates in the phylum Arthropoda.

Arthropod

Arthropods are invertebrates in the phylum Arthropoda.
