Morphological development of the dorsal hindbrain in an elasmobranch fish (Leucoraja erinacea)
Abstract The developmental anatomy of the dorsal hindbrain in an elasmobranch fish, Leucoraja erinacea, is described. We focus on the cerebellum, which is a synapomorphy for gnathostomes. Cerebellar development in L. erinacea, a representative of the most basal gnathostome lineage, may be a proxy fo...
