Abstract:The origin of morphological innovation has been extensively studied within evolutionary developmental biology (evo‐devo). Recent studies have demonstrated that the developmental module for double‐layered epithelial outgrowths is conserved between the insect wings and branchiopod crustacean carapace, thereby introducing homology among these diverse structures. However, evo‐devo studies on the branchiopod crustacean carapace have been primarily limited to a single species, the water flea Daphnia magna, leaving t… Show more
