Description: Invertebrate Zoology continues to be the most current, up-to-date book available. The popular phylum-by-phylum approach has been retained, providing a solid conceptual framework for advanced work in behavior, ecology, physiology, and related subjects. Numerous exercises for studying the structure and function of invertebrates are used. To complete each exercise, users must make observations, conduct investigations, and ask and answer questions, all of which helps them gain a comprehensive understanding of invertebrates. Phylogenetic descriptions outline and review each phylum before it is studied, helping users understand the relationships and diversity among invertebrates. Simple geological time scales trace the history of phyla with significant fossil records. Etymon for each phylum name helps users understand the meanings of terms. A pronunciation guide is included to help users learn new terminology quickly. Appropriate for interested in invertebrate zoology.
