List of bilaterian orders

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Hiroizmeh (talk | contribs) at 23:00, 12 January 2022 (Hiroizmeh moved page List of bilateral animal orders to List of bilaterian orders: more fitting name, 'bilateral' is rarely used while 'bilaterian' is almost unanimously used for this clade, and is a unique name so there would be no need to have 'animal' attached.). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

The relative number of species contributed to the total by each phylum of animals. Arthropoda is the phylum with the most individual organisms.
Superb fairy-wren, Malurus cyaneus
Differences between Deuterostomes and Protostomes
Yellow-winged darter, Sympetrum flaveolum
Pseudobiceros bedfordi, (Bedford's flatworm)
The use of love darts by the land snail Monachoides vicinus is a form of sexual selection

List of bilateral animal orders contains the Bilateria of the animal subkingdom Eumetazoa, divided into four superphyla, Deuterostomia, and the three Protostome superphyla, Ecdysozoa, and the two Spiralia superphyla, Platyzoa and Lophotrochozoa.
