Book excerpt: Excerpt from A d104-Book of Invertebrate Morphology The Morphology of Invertebrate Animals may be treated either from the standpoint of Comparative Anatomy or from the zoological side, and either method of treatment has much to recommend it. In my experience, however, the zoological method has proved most satisfactory for the presentation of the subject to students, inasmuch as it is necessarily the method employed in the laboratory, and accordingly in the present work that plan of presenting the facts of morphology has been followed. A bare statement of the structural peculiarities of the various groups, however, is simply collect ing the bricks and stones without the mortar necessary to unite them together into a substantial edifice, and where the opportunity has presented itself attention has been directed to the comparative significance of various organs and to the affinities of the various groups.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Invertebrate Morphology In 1953 Dr. Snodgrass was appointed an Honorary Collabora tor of the Smithsonian Institution, which title he continues to hold to the present time. At the age of 84 he is actively engaged in further research in his field, and it is hoped that many more of his basic contributions to insect morphology will appear under the Smithsonian imprint.

This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Morphology of Invertebrate Types Owing to the rapid advance of Experimental Zoology, the older branches of morphological study such as Comparative Anatomy and Embryology, have been left in the background. In order to acquire familiarity with modern methods and problems, it became necessary to curtail the time allotted to Morphology. As a natural consequence the laboratory guides in general use in this country are more elementary than is de sirable. The result has proved in many ways unsatisfactory. The student is left with only a superficial knowledge of the structure, life and development of those very animals which in his later studies he is going to use for experiments. But the high tide in Experimental Zoology has been reached and passed. A general tendency to return to morphological studies is manifest in recent years in the great increase in the number of papers dwelling upon the anatomy of invertebrates. It seems, therefore, desirable to place in the hands of the student, a manual which will enable him to lay the foundation for a knowledge of invertebrate anatomy.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Text-Book of Invertebrate Morphology The Morphology of Invertebrate Animals may be treated either from the standpoint of Comparative Anatomy or from the zoological side, and either method of treatment has much to recommend it. In my experience, however, the zoological method has proved most satisfactory for the presentation of the subject to students, inasmuch as it is necessarily the method employed in the laboratory, and accordingly in the present work that plan of presenting the facts of morphology has been followed. A bare statement of the structural peculiarities of the various groups, however, is simply collecting the bricks and stones without the mortar necessary to unite them together into a substantial edifice, and where the opportunity has presented itself attention has been directed to the comparative significance of various organs and to the affinities of the various groups. A word is perhaps necessary in regard to the classification adopted,which presents many radical changes from the schemes usually employed. For the larger groups, following the example of Claus, the term type has been employed, and no less than twelve of these types are adopted. This increased number has resulted from a division of two groups usually recognized, namely, the Vermes and the Arthropod. As regards the former it has long been acknowledged to be a heterogeneous collection, and its retention is to be regarded as a survival. It is true that the forms assigned to it do present certain phylogenetic affinities; but if this is to be the reason for its retention, then the Mollusca and Prosopygia (Molluscoidoa) should also be assigned to it. It has seemed more satisfactory to retain the Mollusca and Prosopygia as distinct groups, and to divide the Vermes into several types, such as the Platyhelmiuthes, Neinathelminthes, and Annelida, each of the same rank as the Mollusca, and presenting approximately similar degrees of affinity among themselves.

Book excerpt: Invertebrate Zoology: A Tree of Life Approach is a comprehensive and authoritative textbook adopting an explicitly phylogenetic organization. Most of the classical anatomical and morphological work has not been changed – it established the foundation of Invertebrate Zoology. With the explosion of Next-Generation Sequencing approaches, there has been a sea-change in the recognized phylogenetic relationships among and between invertebrate lineages. In addition, the merger of evolutionary and developmental biology (evo-devo) has dramatically contributed to changes in the understanding of invertebrate biology. Synthesizing these three approaches (classical morphology, sequencing data, and evo-devo studies) offers students an entirely unique perspective of invertebrate diversity. Key Features One of the first textbooks to combine classical morphological approaches and newer evo-devo and Next-Generation Sequencing approaches to address Invertebrate Zoology Organized along taxonomic lines in accord with the latest understanding of invertebrate phylogeny Will provide background in basic systematic analysis useful within any study of biodiversity A wealth of ancillary materials for students and teachers, including downloadable figures, lecture slides, web links, and phylogenetic data matrices

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Manual of the Common Invertebrate Animals: Exclusive of Insects This manual has been written to supply the need which has been felt in this country for a long time of a book containing descriptions of the common invertebrate animals, by means of which their names and affinities can be determined. Excellent general manuals with analytical keys for the identification of the common insects already exist, but a person wishing to identify animals belonging to most of the other invertebrate groups must usually have recourse to technical papers and treatises which are for the most part inaccessible except to specialists. The book is intended more particularly for use in the eastern and central portions of the United States and Canada, and the endeavor has been made to include in it most of the common invertebrates except insects occurring in this region. In addition to these, representative species occurring in the western states and on the Pacific slope are included, as are also other species to which some special interest attaches and which are found in other parts of the world. Animals which inhabit the deep sea have not been included except in special cases where they are representative of their particular groups. The general plan of the book is similar to that of Leunis' Zoologie, a standard German work which has for two generations supplied the need of a general synopsis of animals in Europe, and has been extensively used elsewhere throughout the world. As in that work, the analytical tables and descriptions of species of each of the larger groups of animals are preceded by a morphological description of the group together with some account of the habits and distribution of the animals. In these descriptions all the technical terms appearing in the tables are explained. References to the principal authorities upon which the descriptions are based are given in footnotes, as are also references to important treatises and monographs which have appeared on the animals described. A knowledge of the historical basis of zoological names adds greatly to their significance and the author has consequently given a history of the nomenclature of each of the larger subdivisions of the animal kingdom in connection with the morphological description of it. A history of the general development of the system of classification since the publication of the tenth edition of Linnaeus' Systema Naturae and a brief survey of the progress of zoological studies in America are added in the Introduction.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Zoology of the Invertebrate Animals Notwithstanding the large number Of scientific works which have been published within the last few years, it is very generally acknowledged by those who are practically engaged in Education, whether as Teachers or as Examiners, that there is still a want Of Books adapted for school purposes upon several important branches of Science. The present series will aim at supplying this deficiency. The works comprised in the series will all be composed with special reference to their use in school-teaching; but, at the same time, particular attention will be given to making the information contained in them trustworthy and accurate, and to presenting it in such a way that it may serve as a basis for more advanced study.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Illustrations of Zoology: Invertebrates and Vertebrates This book is a companion to a course of Systematic Zoology. The need of such a book has become obvious to us from some years of teaching. The study of class-types, now a part of every systematic course, is already well provided for by Professor rolleston's Forms of Animal Life, and the many books that have modelled themselves upon it. The Zoological Laboratory, too, is not without its many and admirable text-books. There is room, however, and need for a form of book such as we offer to the public in these Illustrations of Zoology. In it the student will find illustrated, by Diagram or Drawing, the structure of forms selected from all the great Classes of Vertebrates and Invertebrates, and the illustrations arranged in systematic order. Our design is to help the student of Comparative Anatomy in the most important and the most difficult part of a systematic Course of Lectures. In dealing with the Vertebrates, we could have wished to illustrate types of all the Orders as well as of the Classes, but to have done this would have made the book larger and more expensive without making it proportionally more useful. Besides, the general text-books, as a rule, give with a fair degree of fulness the chief features of the Vertebrate Orders.
