Aggregations of a Sessile Ctenophore, Coeloplana sp., on Indo-West Pacific Gorgonians

Diversity, 2023
We document the benthic ctenophores Coeloplana sp. and Vallicula multiformis from Oman, extending their geographic range. A new Coeloplana species was found forming aggregations on gorgonians of two octocoral host genera, Melithaea and Euplexaura ...

Collagen IV and basement membrane at the evolutionary dawn of metazoan tissues

eLife, 2017
The role of the cellular microenvironment in enabling metazoan tissue genesis remains obscure. Ctenophora has recently emerged as one of the earliest-branching extant animal phyla, providing a unique opportunity to explore the evolutionary role of the ...

Reply to Halanych et al.: Ctenophore misplacement is corroborated by independent datasets [PDF]

, 2016
In their letter, Halanych et al. (1) criticize our recent assertion (2) that the phylogenetic placement of ctenophores as the sister group to all other animals (the Ctenophora-sister hypothesis) in three previous studies (3–5) was an artifact caused by ...

The origin of the Hox/ParaHox genes, the Ghost Locus hypothesis and the complexity of the first animal [PDF]

, 2015
A key aim in evolutionary biology is to deduce ancestral states in order to better understand the evolutionary origins of clades of interest and the diversification process(es) that have elaborated them.

Rho Family of Ras-Like GTPases in Early-Branching Animals

Cells, 2020
Non-bilaterian animals consist of four phyla; Porifera, Cnidaria, Ctenophora, and Placozoa. These early-diverging animals are crucial for understanding the evolution of the entire animal lineage.
