INVERTEBRATE ZOOLOGY
(Redirected from Invertebrate Zoology)
'Invertebrate zoology' is the biological discipline that involves the study of invertebrates.
As invertebrates account for 97% of all animal species, this subdivision of zoology has many further subdivisions including but not limited to:
★ Arachnology - the study of spiders and other arachnids
★ Entomology - the study of insects
★ Malacology - the study of mollusks
★ Carcinology - the study of crustaceans
★ Invertebrate paleontology - the study of extinct invertebrates
These divisions may be further divided into more specific specialties. For example, within arachnology, acarology is the study of mites and ticks; within entomology, lepidoptery is the study of butterflies and moths.
