1. Chaeta

   A chaeta or cheta (from Greek χαίτη “crest, mane, flowing hair"; plural: chaetae) is a chitinous bristle or seta found in annelid worms, (although the term is also frequently used to describe similar structures in other invertebrates such as arthropods). Polychaete annelids, ('polychaeta' literally meaning "many bristles") are named for their chaetae. In Polychaeta, chaetae are found as bundles on the parapodia, paired appendages on the side of the body. The chaetae are epidermal extracellular structures, and clearly visible in most polychaetes. They are probably the best studied structures in these animals.

The plural form is chaetae or chetae. In the Polychaeta, they are located on the parapodia. A range of chaetal shapes and formats exists. Particular forms of chaetae are often species-specific, giving the features a useful taxonomic function.
