Evolutionary developmental biology

the mid-embryonic period at which members of a phylum are claimed to look most alike, treated as a period whose conservation can be tested rather than a single stage.

In evolutionary developmental biology, phylotypic period refers to the mid-embryonic period at which members of a phylum are claimed to look most alike, treated as a period whose conservation can be tested rather than a single stage.
