Most invertebrate have an anterior ganglia or central nervous ring that are considered equivalent to the brain, but have typically less than half the neurons.
It's also the majority of animals because invertebrate species are much more numerous than vertebrate.
Cnidaria (Jellyfish, sea anemones, coral) and sponges have neither, so all their neurons are outside their non-existent brain.
