Abstract in brief

The evolution of the vertebrate skeleton is understood through both living primitive vertebrates and extinct fossils, which provide different insights into the development of dermal and oral skeletal systems.
The fossil record shows that early vertebrates' dermal skeletons had numerous scales and teeth, with primitive teeth patterned for replacement in a conveyor-belt system; these features are linked to the emergence of jawed vertebrates.
Combining data from both extant and extinct species, along with new phylogenetic analyses, has led to the rejection of previous hypotheses and the development of a new model for the origin and early evolution of the vertebrate skeleton.]
