SA. 9. Pad-like bundle of transversus dorsalis anterior.
The transversus dorsalis anterior is a pad-like branch of muscle in pentacerotids. These conditions are considered a synapomorphy of pentacerotids, because the transversus dorsalis anterior is a bar-like unbranched muscle in typical percoids (e.g., Yabe, 1985; Sasaki, 1989; Imamura, 2004; Springer and Johnson, 2004; pers. obs.).
