The researchers were also interested in knowing why loriciferans and kinorhynchs share a similar nervous system design with arthropods despite entering different lines of evolution at some point.

Furthermore, while loriciferans and kinorhynchs share a similar nervous system design to arthropods, they are phylogenetically distant. Are these similarities the result of convergent evolution ...

Similarly, loriciferans and kinorhynchs have a nervous system design similar to that of arthropods, however, they are phylogenetically distant. Are these similarities the result of convergent ...

Ecdysozoans include arthropods (such as insects and crabs ... dragons”) and priapulids (“penis worms”). Their nervous system consisting of the brain, and ventral nerve cord, has often ...

These fossils include representatives of the early-evolving Scalidophora, a subgroup of Ecdysozoa, offering a rare glimpse into the nervous system architecture of ancient animals. Ecdysozoans include ...
