More than 170 multipart line drawings appear throughout the book, comparing different groups and offering detailed views of particular species. The book provides a superb introduction for students and an excellent field consultation and review resource for specialists.Kuhn-Schnyder, Emil is the author of 'Handbook of Paleozoology - Emil Kuhn-Schnyder - Hardcover' with ISBN 9780801828379 and ISBN 0801828376.
