Comparison of the acetylated alpha-tubulin-lir (gray) in the lophophoral base of six cheilostome species. A & C are from the anal side showing the cerebral ganglion, B slightly laterally of the latter two showing a thick circum-oral nerve ring, and D-F are from the oral side where the nerve ring is only thin. A Electra posidoniae. B Bugula neritina. C Myriapora truncata. D Chorizopora brongniartii. E Fenestrulina joannae. F Collarina balzaci. Abbreviations and color code: abfrontal tentacle neurite bundle (orange), cerebral ganglion (red), circumoral nerve ring (brown), d – distal, intertentacular neurite (purple), intertentacular pit (green), laterofrontal tentacle neurite bundle (blue), mediofrontal tentacle neurite bundle (yellow), p – proximal, radial nerve (pink)
