  1. family amphioxidae

    Family Amphioxidae is a group of marine lancelets in the subphylum Cephalochordata. They are small, fish-like organisms that are widely distributed in shallow seas and are considered to be close relatives of vertebrates. They are benthic animals, which means active at the bottom of the ocean, usually burrowing into sandy or muddy substrates. They are characterized by having a notochord, a dorsal nerve cord, pharyngeal slits, and a post-anal tail. The most recognized member of this family is species Amphioxus, often used in teaching and research as a model organism for evolutionary and developmental biology.
