Abstract

Inferences of the ancestral vertebrate are increasingly complex because the previously understudied cyclostomes have been revealed as simplified and specialised. New research uncovers another ancestral vertebrate character, resolving a century of debate over whether the ancestral vertebrate bore gills.

摘要

由于以前研究较少的圆口类被揭示为简化和特化的，因此对祖先脊椎动物的推断越来越复杂。新的研究揭示了另一个祖先脊椎动物的特征，解决了一个世纪以来关于祖先脊椎动物是否有鳃的争论。
