"For each of the thirty-two currently recognized phyla, Invertebrates presents detailed classifications, revised taxonomic synopses, updated information on general biology and anatomy, and current phylogenetic hypotheses, organized with boxes and tables, and illustrated with abundant line drawings and new color photos. The chapters are organized around the "new animal phylogeny," while introductory chapters provide basic background information on the general biology of invertebrates. Two new coauthors have been added to the writing team, and twenty-two additional invertebrate zoologists have contributed to chapter revisions. This benchmark volume on our modern views of invertebrate biology should be in every zoologist's library"--

On the occasion of the 80th birthday of Ross T. Bell, Professor Emeritus of Entomology at the University of Vermont, his colleagues and former students staged a Festschrift in his honor that included his wife and oft-times co-author, Joyce Bell. Two days of scientific presentations and a field day resulted in twenty-six manuscripts on such diverse organisms as Coleoptera, Collembola, and Diptera and in such disparate fields as taxonomy, phylogeny, ecology, with a sprinkling of natural history and cyberinfrastructure. Mostly, the theme of the papers focus on the beetle family Carabidae, on which the Bells spent a number of decades in pursuit of information on taxonomy and biology, particularly for the wrinkled bark beetles, the rhysodines. Twenty-six scientific contributions make up this volume and they are introduced by the preface and first two papers on the Bells themselves and their other contributions to teaching and natural history studies in the environs of Burlington, Vermont.

Invertebrados, livro conhecido como um dos mais completos tratados sobre o tema, chega à sua esperada terceira edição após onze anos, trazendo todos os conhecimentos que já compunham as duas edições anteriores, somados aos mais recentes avanços na área da biologia molecular, sobretudo em filogenética. A obra volta-se para estudantes e pesquisadores, tendo como objetivo principal aproximar o público desse tema inicialmente intimidante com uma abordagem didática pautada no elemento visual. Apesar de, aparentemente, ter mantido a organização da segunda edição, a terceira edição de Invertebrados abarca as principais modificações relativas à classificação de organismos, como mudanças de nomenclatura e reorganizações taxonômicas. Um livro que pode ser usado tanto para a iniciação no assunto quanto para a atualização de conhecimentos.
