  1. Natural Sciences 360 Legacy of Life Lecture 08 Dr. Stuart S. Sumida Finishing Protostomes

  2. Onychophora Tardigrada Anomalocarididae Trilobitomorpha Chelicerata Crustacea Myriapoda Insecta ARTHROPODA Mandibulata

  3. Hurdia – from the Burgess Shale.

  4. Hurdia Amongst the most primitive and oldest known of true arthropods. Belongs to a group call the Anomalocarididae. Known from the Late Cambrian Burgess Shale. It demonstrates earliest evidence and example of the organization of the “head shield) region.

  5. TRILOBITOMORPHA • Oldest known of arthropods. • Excellent examples known back to Cambrian period (about 540 million years ago). • Survived until Early Permian (about 280 million years ago). • Usually considered to be very basal (primitive) member of Arthropoda.

  6. TRILOBITOMORPHA Oldest known of arthropods. Known back to Cambrian period (about 540 million years ago). Survived until Early Permian (about 280 million years ago). Usually considered to be very basal (primitive) member of Arthropoda.

  7. CHELICERATA Includes spiders, scorpions, eurypterids Have specialized mouth parts (but not jaws) called chelicerae.

  8. Some eurypterids were up to two meters in length!

  9. Hadrurus arizonensis

  10. Onychophora Tardigrada Anomalocarididae Trilobitomorpha Chelicerata Crustacea Myriapoda Insecta ARTHROPODA Mandibulata

  11. MANDIBULATA – Arthropods with jaws. Includes crustaceans, insects, and others CRUSTACEA Includes crabs, lobsters, shrimp, one terrestrial group—pill bugs. Primarily marine.

  12. A Crustacean

  13. A Crustacean

  14. A Crustacean

  15. Insects are thought to have evolved from MYRIAPODS through the phenomenon known as NEOTONY NEOTONY – the retention of juvenile features and characters will attaining sexual maturity.

  16. Insects exploited the land with little or no competition. Key innovations that allowed this: 1st – Chitonous exoskeleton hardened and became more waterproof. Later (after insects had already appeared) - wings.

  17. The most primitive insects (called APTERYGOTES) did not have wings. “Apterygotes” “Paleopterans” Neoptera

  18. “Apterygotes” are wingless bugs and include things like silverfish and their relatives.

  19. The most primitive insects (called APTERYGOTES) did not have wings. “Apterygotes” “Paleopterans” Neoptera

  20. The more primitive winges insecs includde mayflies (Ephemeroptera) and the ODONATA. The ODONATA includes damselflies and dragon flies.

  21. Original function of insect wings: Probably not for flight, but for thermoregulation.

  22. The most primitive insects (called APTERYGOTES) did not have wings. “Apterygotes” “Paleopterans” Neoptera

  23. LOTS and LOTS of insect groups: Amongst the most important: Coleptera (beetles) Hymenoptera (ants, bees, wasps, others) Lepidoptera (moths and butterflies)

  24. Coleoptera (beetles) Almost 33% of all known species on the planet.

  25. Hymenoptera (ants, bees, wasps, others) Evolution of extreme examples of social systems

  26. Lepidoptera (moths and butterflies) Important pollinators, night and day.

  27. Ecdysozoa Others Nematoda Arthropoda Others Platyhelminthes Mollusca Annelida Lophotrochozoa

  28. Choanoflagella Porifora Placozoa Ctenophora Cnidaria Protostomia Pterobranchia Echinodermata Hemichordata Chordata Animalia
