| | The Bryozoa are one of the few classical phyla from which no members have been found in the Cambrian. | | | The phylum Bryozoa has been divided into several phyla that are likely unrelated: the Ectoprocta, the Entoprocta, and the Cycliophora. | | | During the Mississippian (354 to 323 million years ago) bryozoans were so common that their broken skeletons form entire limestone beds. |

| | Fossil Record of the Bryozoa |
| | It is plausible that the Bryozoa existed in the Cambrian but were soft-bodied or not preserved for some other reason; perhaps they evolved from a phoronid -like ancestor at about this time. | | | The stenolaemate bryozoans quickly radiated in the early Paleozoic and are very characteristic fossils of Paleozoic rocks, sometimes making substantial contributions to the formation of reefs, calcareous shales, and limestones. | | | The Bryozoa are the only animal phylum with an extensive fossil record that does not appear in Cambrian or late Precambrian rocks. |
