Phylogenetic relationships among vertebrates and gross anatomy of extra-ocular muscles. a A phylogenetic tree of the vertebrates. The hagfishes lack extra-ocular muscles. b Gross anatomy of the extra-ocular muscles of the lamprey (Lethenteron camtschaticum) and shark (Scyliorhinus torazame). Asterisks indicate the optic nerve. The extra-ocular muscles are colored based on their innervation nerve: the oculomotor (III), yellow, trochlear (IV), red; abducens (IV), blue, respectively
