Clades

Xenambulacraria is a proposed clade of animals with bilateral symmetry as an embryo, consisting of the Xenacoelomorpha (i.e., Xenoturbella and acoelomorphs) and the Ambulacraria (i.e., echinoderms and hemichordates).[1]

They can be sister to the Nephrozoa (sans Ambulacraria), the Protostomes and Chordates. Xenambulacraria could also be sister to the Chordates[1][2][3]

  • Other members of the Xenambulacraria

  • Various Acoelomorpha (nemertodermatids).

  • Various Hemichordata (enteropneusts).
