Segmental identity of cephalic appendages and head development in onychophorans. a Simplified diagram of the innervation of segmental cephalic appendages. Body segments, each carrying a pair of appendages, are numbered. b–e Head development in embryos of subsequent developmental stages in the onychophoran Euperipatoides rowelli. The jaws are highlighted artificially in yellow. Modified from Ou et al.
