Abstract
Nephridia are small excretory organs that function in waste disposal and osmoregulation in a wide range of animals but differ in type and germ-layer origin. A new comparison of gene expression in disparate species supports homology of nephridia across bilaterian animals, and their origin from ciliated epidermal cells.
