Endocasts of various extinct and extant chondrichthyans of the main chondrichthyan clades and evolutionary change in the holocephalan branch. A Overlain labyrinths of the genera in F (note the increase in height and decreasing length). B Overlain endocasts of the genera in C (note the increasing volume of the mesencephalon and the dorsal bulging). C Outlines of endocasts of some chondrichthyans. D Evolution of neurocrania, sensory organs, brain endocasts and labyrinths exemplified with seven genera. Eyes reconstructed in blue, labyrinth in red, neurocranium outline in grey. Most endocasts after Coates et al. (2017), Phoebodus after Frey et al. (2019), and unpublished data, Maghriboselache after this paper
