Cephalochordata
Cephalochordata (Acrania) Subphylum of
Chordata, containing only
Amphioxus (lancelet), probably the most primitive of living chordates, although some soft-bodied
Cambrian fossils are dubiously referred to the group. Cephalochordates have a
notochord extending into the head, gill slits, and segmented muscle blocks, and are thought to resemble the ancestors of vertebrates.
