Figure 1 Pineal Complex in Extant Vertebrates The relative development of parapineal (pp) and pineal (pi) organs in major vertebrate clades, according to the homologies promulgated here. In coelacanths, the organs are distinct but communicate and share a common connection with the rest of the brain; in turtles, the organs are only distinct in early ontogeny [4]. In stem (and occasionally crown) representatives of many basal gnathostome clades, there is a median foramen that is usually inferred to have housed the pineal organ. A median foramen is lost numerous times in vertebrate evolution. Although only lepidosaurs, among extant vertebrates, have a foramen for the parapineal organ (parietal eye), it is unknown at which point this transition occurred in amniotes. See key at lower right. Relationships of turtles are after [3]; silhouettes are from http://phylopic.org.

Figure 2 The Parietal in Saniwa ensidens (A) Outline of skull (after [11]) showing position of two specimens. (B and C) YPM VP 1074, in dorsal and ventral views, showing both parietal and pineal foramina. (D) Detail of ventral opening of pineal foramen, showing posterolateral sulcus. (E and F) YPM VP 613, in dorsal and ventral views, showing both foramina. Note the two puncture wounds on the left side. (G) Computed tomography (CT) reconstruction of YPM VP 613 showing the segmented surface of both foramina, with a corner removed. (H) CT reconstruction of YPM VP 1074 showing the segmented surface of both foramina, with the right-middle portion of the bone partly transparent. Scale bar, 5 mm. Abbreviations: f.pa., parietal foramen; f.pi., pineal foramen; s, sulcus. See also Figures S2 and S3.

Figure 4 Phylogenetic Bracketing of Pineal Anatomy in the Common Ancestor of Varanus and Saniwa (A) Pineal tract present (black) or absent (white). (B) A terminal vesicle of the pineal, with or without an eye-like structure, present (black) or absent (white). The tree is based on the molecular topology of squamate relationships [12], but the results are the same for the morphological topology [10]. See also Data S1.
