How do these embryological features relate to Deuterostomes and Protostomes?
Haeckel 1874, proposed phylum “Chordata” and 3 subphyla: ______________ ______________ ______________ (includes Hagfish) Basal Deuterostomes
Hypothesis that vertebrates and these “protochordates” share common ancestor provides impetus for study What features do these larvae share? How are they unique? Basal Deuterostomes
_____________ (sea stars and allies) In fossil record from Cambrian to present ____ classes… today representatives of ___ Unique features: * * So why would they be considered “more closely related” than other marine invertebrates… say clam worms? Basal Deuterostomes http://www.palaeos.com/Invertebrates/Deuterostomia/Homalozoa/Images/Syringocrinus.gif
_________________ (acorn worms) Bateson 1884, proposed Hemichordata as a subgroup of _____________ Basal Deuterostomes http://www.wildsingapore.com.sg/wildfilms/blog/050402cjd2070m3a.jpg http://coris.noaa.gov/glossary/hemichordate_186.jpg
