Love the play of light reflecting off their surfaces. HoweverΒ note Zhang & Hou 2004 (J. Evol. Bio. 17) describe a distinct median ventral fin in Haikouchthys, stretching from the pharyngeal cavity to just in front of the anus.

Thank you, Brian! Yes, I realize I've been missing the ventral fin. I will have to correct for it...

Grandpa !! LOL. BTW, what are their previous ancestors? Worms, Coelentrata, or they are the first vertebrate to pop out of nowhere?

NTamura In reply to Kaijukid23 [2014-04-14 02:07:50 +0000 UTC]

Probably evolved from something like Pikaia...

It wouldn't surprise me if they evolved from something similar toΒ Pikaia.Β

do you have some fosil photos for my to try (really hard) to make an acurate Haikouichthys?
