Abstract

In the present paper I review some important facts regarding the similarities and differences between Galactic planetary nebulae and Galactic Wolf-Rayet (WR) nebulae within the scope of stellar mass-loss history and its subsequent impact on the nebular dynamics and morphology. The case of planetary nebulae with [WR] nuclei, which allows one to perform a more direct comparison with WR nebulae, is emphasized. In particular, I describe the apparently ubiquitous turbulent-like phenomena originating in [WR] stellar atmospheres and the surrounding nebulae, and discuss the possible impact of turbulence on planetary nebula studies.
