The pharynx of the stem-chondrichthyan Ptomacanthus and the early evolution of the gnathostome gill skeleton

Here, Dearden et al. provide insight into the skull conditions of early jawed vertebrates through three-dimensional computed tomography imaging of a 415 million year old stem-chondrichthyan.
