This study examines gene expression in the developing nemertean brain, finding convergent evolution of complex brains in Spiralia through independent expansion of non-homologous regions.

This study identifies a conserved molecular and structural basis for excretory organs across diverse animal species, suggesting a single evolutionary origin.

The paper describes the nervous system morphology of Epiphanes senta males and females, finding that males have a more compact nervous system lacking the stomatogastric part, correlating with their dwarfism and loss of digestive structures.
