This paper also draws on less complete ontogenetic material of the few known somewhat younger palaeozoic lampreys. It demonstrates that early lampreys lacked the ammocoete larval stage, thereby overturning the 150 year old dogma that extant lamprey ontogeny recapitulates early vertebrate evolution1
