Coelomate animals refer to those animals that possess a true body cavity or coelom. The coelom originates from mesoderm and is lined by epithelial cells of mesodermal origin.

Examples: Animals of phylum Annelida, such as earthworm and leech

Animals of phylum Mollusca, such as octopus and pearl oyster
