According to the Choanoflagellate article, "a phylo-genomic study revealed that several algal genes are present in the genome of Monosiga brevicollis. This could be due to the fact that in early evolutionary history, Choanoflagellates consumed algae as food through phagocytosis." If Halkieria was a grazer, who consumed Chancelloriidae; and, if animals can incorporate genes from their food items; then, perhaps "Halkieria was what it ate", i.e. Chancelloridae, from whom the former incorporated the taxonomically-troublesome spines?
