34 | ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) The Hemichordata are marine animals once considered to be a subphylum of chordates because they had gill slits and a rudimentary notochord. However, the so-called notochord is not homologous with that of chordates. |
