Buch, Hardcover, Quarterly Review of Biology Schram's book reviews all aspects of the recognized groups of crustacean, both fossilized and recent. It looks at their external and internal anatomy, feeding, movement, reproductive biology, biogeography, development, and higher taxonomy, and surveys the international literature available. It defines what crustaceans are and how they relate to other groups of articulates. Concluding chapters develop a survey of crustacean phylogeny and higher systematics using cladistic methods, and highlight areas where further research could provide more information for evolutionary synthesis. The author interprets old data in new ways to encourage new thinking about crustacean evolution. [PU: Oxford University Press, USA], Seiten: 620, Oxford University Press, USA, 1986<
