Summary Introduction
To determine: The factors that support the placement of Brachiopoda and Phoronida in sister taxa.
Introduction: The three phyla- Phoronida, Ectoprocta, and Brachiopoda- possess a crown of ciliated tentacles, called a lophophore that they use in food capture and respiration. Brachiopods were abundant in the Paleozoic era but began to decline thereafter.
