New paper in the Journal of Morphology



Salps, as a taxon of the tunicates, have a derived life cycle and are of high interest when studying the evolutionary origin of complex anatomical structures and life history strategies. In this issue of the Journal of Morphology, Braun and Stach present a detailed histological study of the eyes and brains of both the sexual, aggregate blastozooid and the asexual, solitary oozooid stage of Thalia democratica.
