Abstract

Highlights
•Once considered a lobe-fin, Meemannia is the oldest ray-finned fish

•MicroCT reveals ray-fin characters including lateral cranial and spiracular canals

•Meemannia revises hypotheses of bone histology in the ancestor of bony fishes

•“Cosmine”-like tissues are also present in the ray-fin Cheirolepis
