Modifications In Size, Form, And Function Of Homologous Crustacean Appendages (1905)

By William Bonar Bell

Book Overview

Modifications In Size, Form, And Function Of Homologous Crustacean Appendages is a scientific research book written by William Bonar Bell in 1905. The book explores the adaptations of crustacean appendages, which are the external structures or limbs that are used for movement, feeding, and sensing the environment. Bell examines the similarities and differences in the appendages of various crustacean species, and how they have evolved to suit different ecological niches and lifestyles. The book includes detailed descriptions and illustrations of the anatomy and function of appendages such as antennae, mandibles, maxillae, and legs, as well as their modifications in different groups of crustaceans. Bell's research sheds light on the diversity and complexity of crustacean morphology and physiology, and provides valuable insights into the evolution of arthropods as a whole. This book is a valuable resource for students and researchers in the fields of zoology, marine biology, and evolutionary biology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
