Supplementary information
The file contains Supplementary Information which includes the following sections: I. Institutional abbreviations; II. Supplementary morphological data: †Heteronectes chaneti; III. Details of computed tomography (CT); IV. Supplementary morphological data: †Amphistium; V. Legends for CT rendering movies; VI. Characters used in cladistic analysis; VII. Comparative materials used to code characters: fossil taxa; VIII. Comparative materials used to code characters: Recent taxa; IX. Taxon-by-character matrix; X. Systematic methodology; XI. Character optimisations; XII. additional references.. The file also includes Supplementary Figures 1-20 with Legends.
Supplementary information
The file contains Supplementary Movie 1 showing CT rendering of neurocranium of †Amphistium paradoxum (BMNH P.16138; dextral morph).
Animation begins with neurocranium in right-lateral view (damaged side with unmigrated orbit; the skull was fractured when the slab containing the fish was split), then rotates the skull 360 degrees about a vertical axis. Upon returning to start position, the skull rotates the skull 360 degrees about its long axis, showing ventral, left-lateral (side with migrated orbit), and dorsal views. Specimen missing ethmoid region and parasphenoid (broken off block). A still image of the CT rendering and interpretive line drawing are given in Supplementary figure 10. A photograph of the complete specimen is shown in Supplementary figure 8, and a close-up of the skull in Supplementary figure 9.
Supplementary information
The file contains Supplementary Movie 2 showing CT rendering of neurocranium of †Amphistium paradoxum (BMNH P.1982; dextral morph).
Animation begins with neurocranium in right-lateral view (damaged side with unmigrated orbit; the skull was fractured when the slab containing the fish was split), then rotates the skull 360 degrees about a vertical axis. Upon returning to start position, the skull rotates the skull 360 degrees about its long axis showing ventral, left-lateral (side with migrated orbit), and dorsal views. The latter clearly shows medial extent of migrated orbit. A still image of the CT rendering and interpretive line drawing are given in Supplementary figure
