Skull • Neurocranium (brain case) – Chondrocranium (original cartilagenous braincase) – Dermatocranium (dermal bones attached to skull) • Branchiocranium (endoskeletal arches, original gill arch supports) - Arches: - Mandibular Palatine Hyoid Opercular Branchial
Neurocranium
Branchiocranium
Branchiocranium • Mandibular Arch (cartil. & dermal origin) – Sharks • Palatoquadrate Cartilage (top jaw) • Meckel´s Cartilage (bottom jaw) – Bony Fishes • Premaxillae, Maxillae, Supramaxillae (top jaw) • Dentary, Angular (bottom jaw) • Palatine Arch (cartil. origin)
Branchiocranium • Hyoid Arch or Supensorium (cartil. Orig. ) – Provides support and attachment to skull. • lower jaw (Quadrate) • opercular apparatus • Opercular Arch (dermal origin) – Protects gills (Opercule)
Branchiocranium • Branchial Arches (cartil. origin) – Support gills (Ceratobranchial & Epibranchial) – Help chewing (Pharingeal bones)

Jaw Suspension Evolution HYOSTYLIC AMPHISTYLIC AUTOSTYLIC
Vertebral Column Precaudal Caudal
Fins • Pectoral Girdle – Not attached to vertebral column – Attached to Skull • Pelvic Girdle – Not attached to vertebral column • Caudal Fin – Protocercal, heterocercal, homocercal
Fins • Median Fins – Sharks • Ceratotrichia (dermal) • Radials (cartil. )
Fins • Median Fins – Bony Fishes • Ceratotrichia (in larval stages) • Lepidotrichia (dermal) • Pterygiophores (cartil. )
Soft rays soft segmented branched bilateral True Spines hard and pointed unsegmented unbranched solid
Skin
Scale Types • Placoid – – Sharks, rays and chimaeras dermal and epidermal origin Irrigated pulp cavity + dentine + vitrodentine homologous to vertebrate teeth • Cosmoid – Lungfishes – originated by fusion of placoid scales – Two bone layers + cosmine + vitrodentine
Scales • Ganoid – Sturgeons, paddlefish and gars – modified cosmoid scale – Two bone layers + dentine + ganoine • Cycloid and Ctenoid – – Bony fishes evolved from ganoid scale (loss of ganoine) Almost all dermal Overlapping (shingle-like)
