| Description: |
Bryozoans are encrusting colonial organisms which are ubiquitous in freshwater and marine environment. As the dominant sessile organisms of the Antarctic shelf seas, they are a pivotal component of the ecosystem. Yet in spite of enormous increases in research interest in the ecology of the region by over forty nations, no identification guide to the Bryozoa has been available until now. This book describes and illustrates all 264 species of cheilostomate Bryozoawhich have been recorded from the Antarctic seas. It includes an illustrated dichotomous key to the genera, and for each genus there is a key to Antarctic species. All species are fully described, and a clear diagnosis is given for each genus, family, and superfamily. |
