Office hours are subject to change due to my meeting schedule, and I try to notify you in advance. COURSE DESCRIPTION: Vertebrate Zoology is an upper division biology elective in Area 1 (Organismal Biology) that surveys major groups of vertebrates. We examine many aspects of vertebrate biology, including physiology, anatomy, morphology, ecology, behavior, evolution, and conservation. This course also includes a laboratory component, the primary focus of which will be a survey of vertebrates at a local natural area. As much as possible, we will spend time in the field, learning survey techniques and identifying vertebrates. This syllabus is intended as a guide for the semester; however, I reserve the right to make changes in topics or schedules as necessary. COURSE PREREQUISITES: You must have successfully completed (i.e., grade of C- or higher) Biological Principles III (BIO 109). Although not required, courses in evolution (BIO 217), ecology (e.g., BIO 203), and animal physiology (e.g., BIO 401) should prove helpful.

  • PALEOZOOLOGY : INTRODUCTION Dr Poonam Kumari Dept of Zoology (Bsc PART III Paper VI )
    PALEOZOOLOGY : INTRODUCTION Dr Poonam kumari Dept Of Zoology (BSc PART III Paper VI ) It is the branch of paleontology, paleobiology, or zoology dealing with the recovery and identification of multicellular animal remains from geological (or even archeological) contexts, and the use of these fossils in the reconstruction of prehistoric environments and ancient ecosystems. Paleozoology is derived from greek work i.e palaeon means "old" and zoon " means animal. Vertebrate Paleozoology Vertebrate paleozoology refers to the use of morphological, temporal, and stratigraphic data to map vertebrate history in evolutionary theory. Vertebrates are classified as a subphylum of Chordata, a phylum used to classify species adhering to a rod-shaped, flexible body type called a notochord. Classes of vertebrates listed in chronological order from oldest to most recent include heterostracans, osteostracans, coelolepid agnathans, acanthodians, osteichthyan fishes, chondrichthyan fishes, amphibians, reptiles, mammals, and birds. All vertebrates are studied under standard evolutionary generalizations of behavior and life process, although there is controversy over whether population can be accurately estimated from limited fossil resources. Evolutionary origins of vertebrates as well as the phylum Chordata have not been scientifically determined. Many believe vertebrates diverged from a common ancestor of chordates and echinoderms. This belief is well supported by the prehistoric marine creature Amphioxus. Amphioxus does not possess bone, making it an invertebrate, but it has common features with vertebrates including a segmented body and a notochord. This could imply that Amphioxus is a transitional form between an early chordate, echinoderm or common ancestor, and vertebrates. Quantitative Paleozoology Quantitative paleozoology is a process of taking a census of fossil types rather than inventory.
