The great majority of the animal biomass on our planet is made of representatives of the phylum Arthropoda. This epitomical evolutionary success is founded on a few well-defined body plans that were all in place by the end of the Palaeozoic—Chelicerata, Myriapoda, Crustacea, Hexapoda—and on many anatomical structures and morphologies that had already emerged during the early and middle Cambrian, as revealed by fossils from Burgess Shale-type Largerstätten. Reconstituting the evolutionary patterns and relationships of the earliest arthropods and their close ecdysozoan relatives—together in the super-phylum Panarthropoda—has been a challenge and the subject of great historical debate, and has featured repeatedly in discussions of major macroe...
