Pharyngeal gill-slits are characteristically found in chordates. Hagfish (Myxine) and dogfish (Scoliodon) are chordates. Angelfish (Pterophyllum), catfish (Clarias), and sawfish (Pristis) are also chordates and possess pharyngeal gill-slits. Devilfish (Octopus), cuttlefish (Sepia), and starfish (Asterias) are nonchordates and lack pharyngeal gill-slits.
