FIG. 14 in A new genus of Late Cretaceous angel shark (Elasmobranchii; Squatinidae), with comments on squatinid phylogeny

FIG. 14. An undescribed Early Jurassic batomorph skeleton from Holzmaden (SMNS 52666): A, general view of the specimen in dorsal view; white rectangle indicates region shown in B (scale bar = 10 cm); B, detail of cranio-vertebral articulation, showing the existence of an occipital hemicentrum and a short synarcual with four unreduced anterior vertebral centra. In all modern batoids, the occipital hemicentrum and the anteriormost centra within the synarcual are absent and the cranio-vertebral joint is formed entirely by fused dorsal and ventral arcualia of the vertebral column (synarcual cartilage). Thus, reduction or absence of the anterior spool in the first free centrum of squatiniforms is probably independent of the condition in batomorphs.
