We dedicate this volume to two comparative neuroanatomists extraordinaire: Harvey Karten and R. Glenn Northcutt. The studies of the nervous system of nonmammalian vertebrates generated by these two individuals for over four decades have provided, and continue to provide, essential guideposts to all investigators in the field of comparative vertebrate neurobiology. Their insights and unbridled passion for scientific inquiry have inspired many and have made an indelible imprint on generations of researchers. A heartfelt thanks to them both!
