"Annelids (the segmented worms) exist in a remarkably diverse range of mostly marine
but also freshwater and terrestrial habitats, varying greatly in size and form. Annelida
provides a fully updated and expanded taxonomic reference work which broadens the
scope of the classic Polychaetes (OUP, 2001) to encompass wider groups including Clitellata
(comprising more than a third of total annelid diversity), Sipuncula, and Thalassematidae
(formerly Echiura). It reflects the enormous amount of research on these organisms
that has burgeoned since the millennium, principally due to their use as model organisms
to address wider and more general evolutionary and ecological questions.Beginning
with a clear introduction to the phylum and an outline of annelid taxonomy, this authoritative
text describes their collection, the methods to ensure their optimal preservation,
and an overview of anatomy with its relevant terminology. The core of the work comprises
77 fully up-to-date taxonomic chapters, informed by anatomy and the latest molecular
phylogenomic evidence and carefully organised based on a new, robust phylogenetic
hypothesis. Lavishly illustrated throughout with hundreds of previously unpublished
high-resolution colour images and SEM micrographs, the sheer beauty and diversity
of the annelids is nowhere better presented.Annelida is the definitive reference work
for annelid biologists, whilst being of interest to a broader audience of invertebrate
zoologists, systematists, and organismal biologists."--Page 4 de couverture
