Spanish EvoDevo at its best. Congrats to the team on this cool work 🥂🍾
Turns out that “deep conservation of CREs across hundreds of millions of years is far more widespread than previously recognized”

Independent origins of spicules reconcile paleontological and molecular evidence of sponge evolutionary history
Sponges have a cryptic Ediacaran history because ancestral sponges were soft-bodied and had low fossilization potential.
