SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Two volumes published concurrently describing Australia's 1200 known species of bryozoans. The first volume comprehensively covers the history, biology, morphology, ecology, life history and economic impacts of bryozoans. The second volume contains detailed taxonomic data and illustrated family-level treatments, which can be used to identify specimens. Both volumes are illustrated throughout with scanning electron microscope (SEM) images showing intricate details of bryozoan biology and morphology. --Publisher features.
