  2. Vertebrate Classification • Geological eras of early vertebrates • Paleozoic (oldest) • Mesozoic • Cenozoic Figure 4.1

  3. Cambrian Period • Ostracoderms- first vertebrates, shell skinned • Class Agnatha- jawless fish • No paired fins • Bony exoskeleton with dermal armor • Ex: hagfish and lampreys • Jawed fish evolved from Ostracoderms in Silurian period (a) (b) Figure 4.2: (a) ostracoderm, (b) ostracoderm, and (c) lamprey. (c)

  4. Lower vs. Higher Organisms • Echinoderm-like organism (deuterostomes) gave rise to vertebrates • Deuterostomes- blastopore gives rise to anus • Protostomes- blastopore gives rise to mouth (a) (b) Figure 4.3- (a) protostomes and (b) deuterostomes.

  5. Placoderms • Class Placodermii • Jawed and paired fins • Bony dermal exoskeleton; armored fish • 1st jaws were large • Jawed fishes gave rise to all other fishes • Age of fishes- Devonian Period Figure 4.4- Armored fish Figure 4.5- mandibular (ma) and hyoid (hy) arches develop in gnathostomes into palatoquadrate (pq) and Meckel’s (Mc) cartilages

  6. Fish Evolution (a) (b) Figure 4.6: (a) jawless fish, (b) early jawed fish, and (c) modern jawed fish (c)

  7. Placoderms • Anadromous- fish move to freshwater to breed • Catadromous- fish move from freshwater to breed • Hypothesized function of bone- to provide calcium for muscle contraction Figure 4.7: Craniates through geological time.

  8. Fish • Chondrichthyes • Cartilaginous skeleton • Bone remains in scales- placoid scales • Teeth are modified scales • Ex: sharks, rays, skates Figure 4.8: Shark

  9. Tail Type • Heterocercal- vertebral axis curves upward; two asymmetrical lobes (dorsal portion larger) • More primitive, some bony fish • Ex: sharks • Homocercal- symmetrical dorsal and ventral lobes • Most common • Ex: perch • Diphycercal- spear shaped • Ex: lungfish, crossepterygians Figure 4.9

  10. Class Osteichthyes • Subclass Actinopterygii (ray-finned) • Chondrostei- most primitive; heterocercal tail • Ex: sturgeon, paddlefish, Polypterus • Holostei- dominant in past; heterocercal tail • Ex: gar, bowfin • Teleostei- dominant today; homocercal tail • Majority of all fish Figure 4.10- us lionfish (actinopterygian).

  11. Evolutionary relationship of vertebrates with jaws (gnathostomata) to those with bony skeleton (osteichthyes) Figure 4.11

  12. Class Osteichthyes • Subclass Sarcopterygii (fleshy or lobe finned) • 3 genera of lungfish appeared on 3 separate continents • Continental Drift • Torpidity- inactivity; hibernation • Aestivation- burrow through dry season • Order Dipnoi • Order Crossopterygii Figure 4.12: Aestivation; fish burrows into mud until rain returns.

  13. Order Crossopterygii • Living fossil • Species thought to be extinct until coelacanth (Latimeria) • Found off coast of South Africa in 1938 • Separate species discovered off Indonesia in 1999 Figure 4.13: Global locations of coelacanth discoveries.

  14. Coelacanth Figure 4.14: Coelacanth in Indian Ocean.

  15. Coelacanth Figure 4.15 Figure 4.16- Africa’s Sunday Times.

  16. Crossopterygiians (lobe-finned fish) gave rise to Labyrinthodonts (early amphibians) in Devonian Period Figure 4.17: Labyrinthodont

  17. Linking Evidence • Skulls • Parietal foramen • Crossoterygii skull shows place for third eye • Third (pineal) eye visible in young tuatara reptiles • Tooth structure • Labyrinthodont tooth Figure 4.18: Crossopterygii skull. Figure 4.19: Grooved tooth.

  18. Linking Evidence • Limbs evolved • Vertebrae • Girdles similar • Fin’s skeletal composition exhibits homology with early amphibians • Amphibian diversity during Carboniferous period • Toward reptiles, Anura, Caudata, and Apoda Figure 4.20 Figure 4.21

  19. Amphibian Characteristics • 1st to possess cervical vertebrae • Lost scales • Primitive frogs have dermal scales • Anamniotic eggs • 3 chambered heart • Metamorphosis • 10 pairs of cranial nerves • 2 occipital condyles

  20. Apoda • Caecilians • Long and slim; segmented rings • Dermal bones (scales) embedded in annuli Figure 4.22
