Learning outcomes
The main aim of this course and laboratory observations is to understand the morphology, taxonomy, ecology and phylogeny of invertebrates as well as to correlate the characteristics of living representatives with those which exist only in the fossil record. The diversity of body form and lifestyle represented by this group greatly overshadows the diversity of any other group of organisms. Traditional classification schemes have been based largely upon morphology and classical embryology. There is currently a revolution underway in the phylogenetic hypotheses of invertebrates because of new studies in molecular systematics and the genetic research in developmental biology. One of the important goal is developing of student ability to find, collect and determine terrestrial and freshwater invertebrates of the region.
