Fossilized ontogenies: The contribution of placoderm ontogeny to our understanding of the evolution of early gnathostomes
Placoderms, representing phylogenetically more inclusive jawed vertebrates and successive sister taxa to crown-group gnathostomes, are critical to our understanding of character evolution within the crown-group (chondrichthyans + osteichthyans), including developmental characters. Early ontogenetic...
