Treatise on Zoology - Anatomy, Taxonomy, Biology. the Crustacea, Volume 5
Published 20 March 2015
This fifth volume of The Crustacea contains chapters on:
Devoting a chapter to Pentastomida
Class Eupentastomida
Orders Bochusacea, Mictacea, and Spelaeogriphacea
Order Amphipoda
Order Tanaidacea
For those working on Arthropoda, it will be obvious that the chapters on Pentastomida are newly conceived. The other chapters in this book constitute updated translations of contributions in the French edition of the Traite, volume 7(III)(A), while the order Bochusacea, not featuring in the French version as only more recently described, has been added in a combined treatment with the two closely similar orders.
Overall, this constitutes the eighth tome published in this English series, viz., preceded by volumes 1 (2004), 2 (2006), 9A (2010), 9B (2012), 3 (2012), 4A (2013), and 4B (2014). From vol. 4A onward the chapters are no longer published in the serial sequence as originally envisaged, because the various contributions, both the updates and the entirely new chapters, become available in a more or less random order. Yet, when completing this series, all major issues as well as all taxa currently recognized will have been treated.
