Fig. 4: Morphological interpretation and reconstruction of mollisoniid exoskeletal and internal anatomy. a USNM 305093, interpretative diagram. b Dorsal morphology of Mollisonia symmetrica; appendicular data is omitted due to its incompleteness. c Internal anatomy showing the digestive system. d Central nervous system organization. The morphology and number of segmental nerves in the putative synganglion and esophageal foramen within the head shield are hypothetical, based on the appendicular data described for Mollisonia plenovenatrix from Burgess Shale and its suggested affinities with chelicerates34. ca? putative cephalic appendage, cn connective, dr dorsal ridge, ey lateral eye, eyl eye lens, g gut tract, gan segmental ganglion, gd gut diverticulum, hs head shield, on optic nerve, pl pleura, pg pygidium, re retina, snn n segmental nervesegmental nerve, syn? putative synganglion, snn segmental nerve, Tn trunk tergite.
