User-friendly dichotomous keys are supported by details of diagnostic features and biology of each species. Now enhanced with 32 pages of colour, this much acclaimed guide is invaluable to students of marine biology at any level. Questions such as how does the species reproduce? What is its life-cycle? How does it feed? are answered in the notes accompanying each species to give a fascinating insight into the diversity and complexity of life on the shore. The text is supported by an extensive glossary of scientific terms and a comprehensive bibliography is included to aid further study. The third edition builds on the excellent reviews of earlier editions and will continue to appeal to a wide readership, including students, teachers and naturalists.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003ePreface\u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgements for illustrations\u003cbr\u003e Introduction\u003cbr\u003e Design and layout of the book\u003cbr\u003e Illustrated guide to the plants and animals of the shore\u003cbr\u003e Seaweeds\u003cbr\u003e Lichens\u003cbr\u003e Anthophyta\u003cbr\u003e Porifera\u003cbr\u003e Cnidaria\u003cbr\u003e Ctenophora\u003cbr\u003e Platyhelminthes\u003cbr\u003e Nemertea\u003cbr\u003e Priapula\u003cbr\u003e Annelida\u003cbr\u003e Mollusca\u003cbr\u003e Arthropoda\u003cbr\u003e Sipuncula\u003cbr\u003e Echiura\u003cbr\u003e Bryozoa\u003cbr\u003e Phoronida\u003cbr\u003e Echinodermata\u003cbr\u003e Hemichordata\u003cbr\u003e Chordata\u003cbr\u003e Plates\u003cbr\u003e Glossary\u003cbr\u003e Bibliography\u003cbr\u003e Index.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Zoology \u0026amp; animal sciences [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Zoology \u0026amp; animal sciences\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Zoology%20\u0026amp;%20animal%20sciences%20%5BPSV%5D%22\"\u003ePSV\u003c\/a\u003e], Botany \u0026amp; plant sciences [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Botany \u0026amp; plant sciences\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Botany%20\u0026amp;%20plant%20sciences%20%5BPST%5D%22\"\u003ePST\u003c\/a\u003e], Marine biology [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Marine biology\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Marine%20biology%20%5BPSPM%5D%22\"\u003ePSPM\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46000512827672,"sku":"9780521720595","price":46.77,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9780521720595i_44a3ade9-156f-4dac-a954-e29d3a91daa0.jpg?v=1691380506","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/a-students-guide-to-the-seashore-paperback-9780521720595","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
