    Practical Paleoecology GEO 342 Compiled By: Dr. Osama Attia Compiled By Dr. Osama Attia 1 Phylum Brachiopoda Brachiopods or lamp shells Name: Name means "arm" (brachio) + "foot" (pod). Main characteristics: - Bivalved (two shells), each with bilateral symmetry. - The plane of symmetry passes through the center of each shell or valve. - The two valves differ in size and shape in most. Sometimes the larger valve will have an opening near the hinge line through which the pedicle extended in life. - Soft parts include a lophophore consisting of coiled tentacles with cilia. The lophophore circulates water between the two valves, distributing oxygen and flushing out carbon dioxide. Water movements caused by the lophophore also transport food particles toward the mouth. Geologic range: Lower Cambrian to Recent. Very abundant during the Paleozoic. A few species (belonging to only three families) remain today. Mode of life: Inhabitants of shallow marine environments; they generally live attached in a fixed position on the seafloor. Inarticulate brachiopods are known to live in burrows in the sediment. Brachiopods are filter feeders. Compiled By Dr. Osama Attia 2 Living positions of brachiopods. A = Articulate brachiopod attached to the seafloor by its pedicle.

Lophotrochozoans represent a superphylum that is crucial to our understand- ing of bilaterian evolution. However, given the inconsistency of molecular and morphological data for these groups, their ori- gins have been unclear. Here, we present draft genomes of the nemertean Notospermus geniculatus and the phoronid Phoronis australis, together with transcriptomes along the adult bodies. Our genome-based phylogenetic analyses place Nemertea sis- ter to the group containing Phoronida and Brachiopoda. We show that lophotrochozoans share many gene families with deu- terostomes, suggesting that these two groups retain a core bilaterian gene repertoire that ecdysozoans (for example, flies and nematodes) and platyzoans (for example, flatworms and rotifers) do not.

  • • Every Major Animal Phylum That Exists on Earth Today, As Well As A
    • Every major animal phylum that exists on Earth today, as well as a few more that have since become ex:nct, appeared within less than 10 million years during the early Cambrian evolu:onary radiaon, also called the Cambrian explosion. • Phylum Pro:sta includes a diverse group of eukaryo:c microorganisms which are mostly unicellular. They are not necessarily primi:ve, although some are. Only some have a skeleton that can be preserved as a fossil. • Foraminifera and radiolaria are the most important examples. Coccolithophores, diatoms, and dinoflagellates are also examples. • Foraminifera are marine organisms that may be either planktonic, living in the water column where they float at various levels, or benthic, living on or within the seafloor sediment. • They form relavely large (0.1 mm to 5 cm) porous internal skeletons called tests through which project strands of living cytoplasm. The single- to mul:-chambered tests may be composed of organic maer, agglu:nated sand grains or sponge spicules, or calcium carbonate. • Benthic foraminifera • Planktonic foraminifera (Cambrian to Recent). (Jurassic to Recent). Oligocene Eocene • Radiolaria are planktonic marine organisms that tend to live in relavely cold water. • Their tests, oNen delicate and elaborate, are made of silica and presently accumulate on the floors of the parts of oceans that are deeper than those where foraminiferal tests are accumulang. • Radiolaria (Cambrian to • Radiolaria (Cambrian to Recent).

  • The Nervous System of the Lophophore in the Ctenostome Amathia Gracilis
    Temereva and Kosevich BMC Evolutionary Biology (2016) 16:181 DOI 10.1186/s12862-016-0744-7 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access The nervous system of the lophophore in the ctenostome Amathia gracilis provides insight into the morphology of ancestral ectoprocts and the monophyly of the lophophorates Elena N. Temereva* and Igor A. Kosevich Abstract Background: The Bryozoa (=Ectoprocta) is a large group of bilaterians that exhibit great variability in the innervation of tentacles and in the organization of the cerebral ganglion. Investigations of bryozoans from different groups may contribute to the reconstruction of the bryozoan nervous system bauplan. A detailed investigation of the polypide nervous system of the ctenostome bryozoan Amathia gracilis is reported here. Results: The cerebral ganglion displays prominent zonality and has at least three zones: proximal, central, and distal. The proximal zone is the most developed and contains two large perikarya giving rise to the tentacle sheath nerves. The neuroepithelial organization of the cerebral ganglion is revealed. The tiny lumen of the cerebral ganglion is represented by narrow spaces between the apical projections of the perikarya of the central zone. The cerebral ganglion gives rise to five groups of main neurite bundles of the lophophore and the tentacle sheath: the circum-oral nerve ring, the lophophoral dorso-lateral nerves, the pharyngeal and visceral neurite bundles, the outer nerve ring, and the tentacle sheath nerves. Serotonin-like immunoreactive nerve system of polypide includes eight large perikarya located between tentacles bases. There are two analmost and six oralmost perikarya with prominent serotonergic “gap” between them. Based on the characteristics of their innervations, the tentacles can be subdivided into two groups: four that are near the anus and six that are near the mouth.

  • Genes with Spiralian-Specific Protein Motifs Are Expressed In
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-020-17780-7 OPEN Genes with spiralian-specific protein motifs are expressed in spiralian ciliary bands Longjun Wu1,6, Laurel S. Hiebert 2,7, Marleen Klann3,8, Yale Passamaneck3,4, Benjamin R. Bastin5, Stephan Q. Schneider 5,9, Mark Q. Martindale 3,4, Elaine C. Seaver3, Svetlana A. Maslakova2 & ✉ J. David Lambert 1 Spiralia is a large, ancient and diverse clade of animals, with a conserved early developmental 1234567890():,; program but diverse larval and adult morphologies. One trait shared by many spiralians is the presence of ciliary bands used for locomotion and feeding. To learn more about spiralian- specific traits we have examined the expression of 20 genes with protein motifs that are strongly conserved within the Spiralia, but not detectable outside of it. Here, we show that two of these are specifically expressed in the main ciliary band of the mollusc Tritia (also known as Ilyanassa). Their expression patterns in representative species from five more spiralian phyla—the annelids, nemerteans, phoronids, brachiopods and rotifers—show that at least one of these, lophotrochin, has a conserved and specific role in particular ciliated structures, most consistently in ciliary bands. These results highlight the potential importance of lineage-specific genes or protein motifs for understanding traits shared across ancient lineages. 1 Department of Biology, University of Rochester, Rochester, NY 14627, USA. 2 Oregon Institute of Marine Biology, University of Oregon, Charleston, OR 97420, USA. 3 Whitney Laboratory for Marine Bioscience, University of Florida, 9505 Ocean Shore Blvd., St. Augustine, FL 32080, USA. 4 Kewalo Marine Laboratory, PBRC, University of Hawaii, 41 Ahui Street, Honolulu, HI 96813, USA.

  • Phylum Porifera
    790 Chapter 28 | Invertebrates updated as new information is collected about the organisms of each phylum. 28.1 | Phylum Porifera By the end of this section, you will be able to do the following: • Describe the organizational features of the simplest multicellular organisms • Explain the various body forms and bodily functions of sponges As we have seen, the vast majority of invertebrate animals do not possess a defined bony vertebral endoskeleton, or a bony cranium. However, one of the most ancestral groups of deuterostome invertebrates, the Echinodermata, do produce tiny skeletal “bones” called ossicles that make up a true endoskeleton, or internal skeleton, covered by an epidermis. We will start our investigation with the simplest of all the invertebrates—animals sometimes classified within the clade Parazoa (“beside the animals”). This clade currently includes only the phylum Placozoa (containing a single species, Trichoplax adhaerens), and the phylum Porifera, containing the more familiar sponges (Figure 28.2). The split between the Parazoa and the Eumetazoa (all animal clades above Parazoa) likely took place over a billion years ago. We should reiterate here that the Porifera do not possess “true” tissues that are embryologically homologous to those of all other derived animal groups such as the insects and mammals. This is because they do not create a true gastrula during embryogenesis, and as a result do not produce a true endoderm or ectoderm. But even though they are not considered to have true tissues, they do have specialized cells that perform specific functions like tissues (for example, the external “pinacoderm” of a sponge acts like our epidermis).
