Introduction to invertebrates -- Introduction to protozoa -- Protozoa -- Introduction to metazoa -- Porifera and placozoa -- Introduction to eumetazoa -- Cnidaria -- Ctenophora -- Introduction to bilateria -- Platyhelminthes, orthonectida, and dicyemida -- Nemertea -- Mollusca -- Annelida -- Echiura and sipuncula -- Onychophora and tardigrada -- Introduction to arthropoda -- Trilobitomorpha -- Chelicerata -- Crustacea -- Myriapoda -- Hexapoda -- Cycloneuraliasp -- Gnathifera -- Kamptozoa and cycliophora -- Lophophorata -- Chaetognatha -- Introduction to deuterostomia and hemichordata -- Echinodermata -- Chordata.

Summary: uppert/Barnes' best-selling introduction to the biology of invertebrates is highly regarded for its accuracy and strong research base. This thorough revision provides a survey by animal group, emphasizing evolutionary origins, adaptive morphology and physiology, while covering anatomical ground plans and basic developmental patterns. New co-author Richard Fox brings to the revision his expertise as an ecologist, offering a good balance to Ruppert's background as a functional morphologist. Lavish illustrations and extensive citations make the book extremely valuable as a teaching tool and reference source
