Benthozoa
Clade of early animals / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Benthozoa or Myriazoa[1] are a proposed basal animal clade consisting of the Porifera and ParaHoxozoa as sister of the Ctenophora.[2] An alternative phylogeny is given by the Porifera-sister hypothesis in which Porifera are the first diverging animal group.
