Ambulacraria Chordata, and the few extinct species belonging to the Vetulicolia.
The two living clades with representative organisms are:
- feather stars, sea lilies, etc.)
- )
(These together sometimes are called the lower deuterostomes.[3])
Whether the
metazoans,[4][5][6] and other authors asserting that the best choices of phylogenetic methods support the position of Xenacoelomorpha as the sister group to Ambulacraria.[7][8]
Fossil taxa that may lie on the stem lineage:
- Superphylum Ambulacraria
- † "Cambroernids" (informal unranked clade)[9]
- Herpetogaster
- Phlogites
- "Eldoniids" / "Eldonioids"
- † "Cambroernids" (informal unranked clade)[9]
Fossil ambulacrarians
Genera include:
Ontogeny
As for many animals, the
gastrula. The gastrula then develops into a dipleurula larva form in the Asteroidea, Holothuroidea, Crinoidea, and Hemichordata, and into a pluteus larva form in the Echinoidea and Ophiuroidea.[3][10]
This, in its turn, is developed in various different kinds of larvae for different taxa of ambulacrarians.
It has been suggested that the adult form of the
last common ancestor of the ambulacrarians was anatomically similar to the dipleurula larva; this hypothetic ancestor sometimes also is called dipleurula.[11]
