Trochophora larvae: cell-lineages, ciliary bands and body regions. 2. Other groups and general discussion
Abstract
The embryology of sipunculans, entoprocts, nemertines, platyhelminths (excluding acoelomorphs), rotifers, ectoprocts, phoronids, brachiopods, echinoderms and enteropneusts is reviewed with special emphasis on cell-lineage and differentiation of ectodermal structures. A group Spiralia comprising the four first-mentioned phyla plus annelids and molluscs seems well defined through the presence of spiral cleavage with early blastomere specification, prototroch with characteristic cell-lineage, cerebral ganglia developing from cells of the first micromere quartet (i.e., the episphere) and a ventral nervous system developing from the hyposphere. The planktotrophic trochophore was probably the larval type of the ancestor of this group. Another group comprising phoronids, brachiopods, echinoderms and enteropneusts appears equally well delimited. It is characterized by radial cleavage with late blastomere specification, possibly by the presence of a neotroch consisting of monociliate cells, by the absence of cerebral ganglia and of a well-defined brain and paired longitudinal nerve cords developing in connection with the blastopore, and by coelomic organization. Its ancestral larval type was probably a dipleurula. Several characters link rotifers with the spiralians, although they do not show the spiral pattern in the cleavage. Ectoprocts are still a problematic group, but some characters indicate spiralian affinities.

Ciliated larvae are widespread in cnidarians, lophotrochozoans, and deuterostomes.
“Ciliated larvae are widespread in cnidarians, lophotrochozoans (a major protostome group comprising annelids, molluscs and other marine phyla), and deuterostomes (echinoderms, hemichordates, cephalochordates).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
