  • Towards a Management Hierarchy (Classification) for the Catalogue of Life
    TOWARDS A MANAGEMENT HIERARCHY (CLASSIFICATION) FOR THE CATALOGUE OF LIFE Draft Discussion Document Rationale The Catalogue of Life partnership, comprising Species 2000 and ITIS (Integrated Taxonomic Information System), has the goal of achieving a comprehensive catalogue of all known species on Earth by the year 2011. The actual number of described species (after correction for synonyms) is not presently known but estimates suggest about 1.8 million species. The collaborative teams behind the Catalogue of Life need an agreed standard classification for these 1.8 million species, i.e. a working hierarchy for management purposes. This discussion document is intended to highlight some of the issues that need clarifying in order to achieve this goal beyond what we presently have. Concerning Classification Life’s diversity is classified into a hierarchy of categories. The best-known of these is the Kingdom. When Carl Linnaeus introduced his new “system of nature” in the 1750s ― Systema Naturae per Regna tria naturae, secundum Classes, Ordines, Genera, Species …) ― he recognised three kingdoms, viz Plantae, Animalia, and a third kingdom for minerals that has long since been abandoned. As is evident from the title of his work, he introduced lower-level taxonomic categories, each successively nested in the other, named Class, Order, Genus, and Species. The most useful and innovative aspect of his system (which gave rise to the scientific discipline of Systematics) was the use of the binominal, comprising genus and species, that uniquely identified each species of organism. Linnaeus’s system has proven to be robust for some 250 years. The starting point for botanical names is his Species Plantarum, published in 1753, and that for zoological names is the tenth edition of the Systema Naturae published in 1758.

Announcements: We will use Moodle as our learning management system. Create a Moodle account (code: zool4420-001) and check for lecture slides, videos, etc. on a regular basis. Introduction: Invertebrates comprise at least 95% of all known animals. From their numbers and diversity alone, it is obvious that invertebrates are incredibly important. They are food for humans and other animals, they cause disease, they pollinate most of the plants we need and use, they affect global climate, some are important with respect to medicine, etc. All people, but especially biologists, need to have a good working knowledge of invertebrates Teaching Philosophy: My teaching philosophy is that I want to share as much knowledge and understanding of the subject with students as possible. To see my students excel and become empowered with the newly acquired knowledge is what I feel teaching is all about. My goal for this course is that all participants learn about and come to appreciate all invertebrate groups. In more detail, this involves learning names and classification, and biology of invertebrates. Course Description: Invertebrate Zoology is a senior-level animal diversity course. It is a 4-unit lecture and laboratory course, with 3 lectures and 1 lab period per week.

  • Styles of Reasoning in Early to Mid-Victorian Life Research: Analysis:Synthesis and Palaetiology
    Journal of the History of Biology (2006) Ó Springer 2006 DOI 10.1007/s10739-006-0006-4 Styles of Reasoning in Early to Mid-Victorian Life Research: Analysis:Synthesis and Palaetiology JAMES ELWICK Science and Technology Studies Faculties of Arts and Science and Engineering York University 4700 Keele St. M3J 1P3 Toronto, ON Canada E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. To better understand the work of pre-Darwinian British life researchers in their own right, this paper discusses two different styles of reasoning. On the one hand there was analysis:synthesis, where an organism was disintegrated into its constituent parts and then reintegrated into a whole; on the other hand there was palaetiology, the historicist depiction of the progressive specialization of an organism. This paper shows how each style allowed for development, but showed it as moving in opposite directions. In analysis:synthesis, development proceeded centripetally, through the fusion of parts. Meanwhile in palaetiology, development moved centrifugally, through the ramifying specialization of an initially simple substance. I first examine a com- munity of analytically oriented British life researchers, exemplified by Richard Owen, and certain technical questions they considered important. These involved the neu- rosciences, embryology, and reproduction and regeneration. The paper then looks at a new generation of British palaetiologists, exemplified by W.B. Carpenter and T.H. Huxley, who succeeded at portraying analysts’ questions as irrelevant. The link between styles of reasoning and physical sites is also explored. Analysts favored museums, which facilitated the examination and display of unchanging marine organisms while providing a power base for analysts. I suggest that palaetiologists were helped by vivaria, which included marine aquaria and Wardian cases.

Penitella hopkinsi sp. nov., from the Gulf of Alaska, differs from other species in the genus by its blunt and thickened posterior margin that inserts against the base of a chimney of agglutinated sediment (unique in the genus), by the shape of the mesoplax, and by details of the umbonal reflection and dorsal extension of the callum. Anatomy is unknown. Late Pleistocene records of the species range from the Seward Peninsula, Alaska, to Point Arena, California.

  • IB 103LF: Invertebrate Zoology
    IB 103LF: Invertebrate Zoology Course Instructor TBD Graduate Student Instructors TBD COURSE DESCRIPTION AND GOALS Invertebrate zoology includes the biology of all animal organisms that do not have vertebrae, which means more than 95% of all described species of animals. This 5-credit course includes 3h of lecture and 6h of laboratory section per week. Lectures will concentrate on organizing and interpreting information about invertebrates to illustrate (1) evolutionary relationships within and among taxa, (2) morphology, reproduction, development and physiology of major phyla, and (3) adaptations that permit species to inhabit particular environments. Laboratories will be a hands-on opportunity for you to learn about the structure and function of the major invertebrate body plans; and field trips will bring all information together, with living examples. My primary objective in this course is to present the invertebrate diversity that has evolved on Earth (at least of the ones we are aware of); not in depth, but with an overview and selected highlights. By the end of the course you should be able to (1) identify major invertebrate phyla and the morphological characters that define them; (2) apply basic concepts of zoological classification and interpret phylogenetic trees; and (3) discuss current hypotheses for the origin of major invertebrate groups and the relationships among them. Along with introducing you to the diversity and evolution of animal body plans, my goal is also (4) to develop your written and oral communication skills. I also hope you will teach and learn from one another, especially when studying course materials and completing laboratory exercises. ASSIGNMENTS AND GRADING The final grade will be scaled according to course units: 60% for lecture (3 units) and 40% for laboratory (2 units) assignments.

  • Invertebrate Zoology Syllabus Bisc 338
    INVERTEBRATE ZOOLOGY SYLLABUS BISC 338 Dr. Gary Gaston; email [email protected]; phone 915-7162; office hours posted outside office in Shoemaker Hall, Room 304. Course Content: This course is a survey of the invertebrate phyla with lectures on ecology, evolution, and behavior. Lectures for BISC 338 are in room 213; labs are in room 213. Dr. Gaston will lecture preceding lab occasionally to ensure that we cover all material. All students are expected to attend class and lab. Goals and Requirements: We will study the invertebrate (animal) phyla. You will be expected to be familiar with the names and characteristics of the phyla, be able to identify specimens and their morphology, and discuss their ecology and evolution. We will leave for field trips promptly when lab begins, so be on time. You will not be allowed to make up missed labs. Outcomes and Objectives: After completing this course successfully, a student should be able to discuss the evolution of invertebrates, understand the differences among phyla, identify characteristic anatomical features of representative organisms in each phylum, recite the taxonomy and hierarchy of invertebrate binomial nomenclature, and intelligently discuss the ecological role of representative organisms in the major phyla. Methods of Evaluation: Attendance and participation in class and lab are mandatory and may be used to determine your grade. There will be 2 tests in lecture (midterm and comprehensive final), 2 lab practicals, plus a fifth composite grade (calculated from several quizzes, graded assignments, and in-class assignments). Thus, you have 5 scores averaged for your grade (2 in class, 2 in lab, and a grade that is the composite of your quizzes and assignments; all equally weighted at 20% each).
