Topic: Eucarida


In the News (Sun 29 Nov 09)

  
  Eucarida - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
They are characterised by having the carapace fused to all thoracic segments, and by the possession of stalked eyes.
Of all the groups of crustaceans, the Eucarida appeared relatively late in the fossil record.
They first appear in the Mesozoic era, but are presumed to have first evolved much earlier.

The volume opens with a general introduction to the Malacostraca, giving an historical overview of the work on this group.
The Catalogue then summarises the baseline data on nomenclature and taxonomy of all Phyllocarida, Hoplocarida and Eucarida (with the exception of crabs, hermit crabs and their allies).
For each family there is a brief introduction and diagnosis, then Australian species are cited by name and original references are given.
