The details of the modern phylogenetic tree change frequently as new data are gathered, and molecular data has recently contributed to many substantial modifications of the understanding of relationships between animal phyla.

Since then, animals have evolved into a diverse kingdom known as Animalia or Metazoa. Although over one million extant species of animals have been identified, scientists are continually discovering more species as they explore ecosystems around the world.

These features plus the absence of Hox genes from the Ctenophores have been used to argue that the Ctenophores should be considered basal or as a sister group of the Porifera, and that the evolution of specialized nerve and muscle tissue may have occurred more than once in the history of animal life.
