It’s a collision! Two great carnivals on the same day. Check out Carnival of the Spineless #23 from sodden Great Britain, where the molluscs are thriving, and also read Tangled Bank #85, the Reductionist’s Tale at Migrations.

PZ — the first link in your abstract seems to just link back here. Oddly enough, the link is then correct in your article text.
BTW.. I don’t get these things. Can someone explain what they are?
…sorry.. both the abstract’s first link and the article’s first link seem to be wrong, and yet different. But, either way, wrong.
T@Ts: These things are carnivals, sort of blogpost anthologies that collect posts on a certain theme (here, organisms) from Across the Blogosphere for your reading pleasure.
Dr. Myers, wonder if you might weigh in on this evo-devo study that speaks of Hox genes and hydromedusae with “heads”…wtf is a cnidarian “head”?
Interesting.. thanks for the explanation, Sven!
