Opisthosomal fusion and phylogeny of Palaeozoic Xiphosura
Fusion of opisthosomal tergites to form a thoracetron has previously been considered a characteristic of the xiphosuran superfamilies Euproopoidea Eller, 1938, and Limuloidea Zittel, 1885. Evidence is presented here that fusion also occurs in Bellinuroidea Zittel & Eastman, 1913.

AbstractXiphosura are an early branching sister taxa to Arachnida, which together comprise the group Euchelicerata. Because they appear to have retained many plesiomorphic features, xiphosurans are seen as a proxy of the (Eu)chelicerate ancestor. Xiphosurans probably acquired many new characteristics during the course of their evolution; nevertheless ...

An “ancient” complexity? Evolutionary morphology of the circulatory system in Xiphosura
Zoology, 2015Horseshoe crabs (Xiphosura) have been an object of zoological research for almost 200 years. Although some morphological work on the circulatory system has been done, the three-dimensional structure of this complex organ system has never been shown satisfactorily and some crucial questions remain unanswered.

Examining Evolutionary Rate in Xiphosura
Horseshoe crabs, a group of aquatic chelicerate arthropods of the class Xiphosura, are strongly linked with the concept of “living fossils” – a term colloquially used to refer to clades that display a consistently low rate of morphological evolution ...
