“…Cranial neural crest cells that delaminate from the posterior mesencephalon and rhombencephalon give rise to the cartilage and bones of the midface, middle ear, jaw, and neck (Figure 1a,b,d). Neural crest cells from the rhombencephalon, which are organized into seven separate rhombomeres, migrate into the corresponding first through fourth pharyngeal arches and ultimately develop into the mandible, teeth, middle ear, and hyoid (Barembaum & Bronner-Fraser, 2005;Gong, 2014;Hong & Saint-Jeannet, 2005;Minoux & Rijli, 2010;Steventon, Carona-Fontaine, & Mayor, 2005;Trainor, 2005;Williams & Bohnsack, 2015).
