ISBN10: 0198526466, ISBN13: 9780198526469, [publisher: OUP Oxford] Softcover nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book presents current knowledge of the early vertebrates--mainly fish, but including some terrestrial creatures--which lived about 250 to 470 million years ago. The work focuses on anatomical and phylogenetic questions, but includes information on fossil discovery and preparation, as well as the analysis of the characteristics from which their relationships may be reconstructed. The author addresses both new and old problems in the evolution of certain anatomical details and deals briefly with the animals' way of life, extinction, and former distribution. The book is the first in its field to use a cladistic approach. For each major vertebrate group, the reader will find a diagram of relationships, or cladogram, with a selection of characters at each node, and a succinct phylogenetic classification.

ISBN10: 0198526466, ISBN13: 9780198526469, [publisher: Oxford University Press, Oxford] Softcover Paperback. This book presents our current knowledge of the early vertebrates, which were mainly fish, but included some land vertebrates, and lived 470 to 250 million years ago. It centres on anatomical and phylogenetic questions, but includes information about fossil discovery and preparation, as well as the analysis of the characteristics from which their relationships may be reconstructed. It addresses critically both old and new problems in the evolution of certainanatomical structures and deals briefly with the animals' way of life, extinction, and former distribution.In addition, the author gives a potted history of the field of vertebratepalaentology and the rise of cladistics, a cmajor methodological revolution in comparative biology. The book is the first in this field to use a cladistic approach. For each major vertebrate group, the reader will find a diagram or relationships, or cladogram, with a selection of characters at each node, and a succinct phlyogenetic classification. This is a unique, up-to-date and well-illustrated monograph on early vertebrates (mainly fish), their appearance and way of life, and their cladistic relationships to extant vertebrates. Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability. [Truganina, VIC, Australia] [Publication Year: 2003]
