Synopsis

The Atlas of Marine Invertebrate Larvae is the most comprehensive guide to larval form and anatomy ever produced. Each chapter provides a referenced overview of life cycles, reproduction, embryology, larval life, larval form and metamorphosis in a particular group of invertebrates. More than 1200 drawings and photographs illustrate the gross anatomy of all known types of marine larvae and provide a visual survey of the range of larval diversity within each phylum. This book assembles the best larval photographs previously published in scientific literature into one place. Many of the plates, which include color photographs and numerous scanning electron micrographs, are original. Contributed chapters and illustrative material is covered by more than 50 recognized authorities on larval development from throughout the world.

A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

Craig Young is Professor of Biology at the University of Oregon, and past Director of the Oregon Institute of Marine Biology. Dr. Young has devoted his professional career to investigating the reproduction and early life-history stages of marine benthic invertebrates at all depths of the sea, and his lab pioneered the culture of larvae from deep-sea environments worldwide. Dr. Young, the founding editor of Atlas of Marine Invertebrate Larvae, returns to the second edition as co-editor.

Mary A. Sewell is a Professor of Biological Sciences at the University of Auckland, New Zealand. She is an authority on the larval form, physiology, and ecology of echinoderms, with research on species from the tropics to the Antarctic and from the intertidal to abyssal depths. Dr. Sewell returns to the second edition of Atlas of Marine Invertebrate Larvae as associate editor.
