ABSTRACT
The eccentric seahorses, seadragons, pipehorses and pipefishes (Syngnathidae) have an aglomerular kidney1. Here, we show that nephron genes2 conserved in Bilateria are secondarily eroded/deleted in Syngnathidae genomes. A transcriptome enrichment analysis suggests the predominance of excretion processes in the Syngnathidae kidney. In a lineage where crypsis and idleness are tightly associated, we propose that aglomerulism evolved as an energy-saving strategy.
