Animal Systematics And Diversity - III And Applied Zoology - I

It gives us great pleasure to present this book “A Text Book of Animal Systematics and Diversity – III (Paper I) and Applied Zoology – I (Paper II)) for the students of Second Year B.Sc. Zoology. This book is written according to the revised syllabus of June 2014.

We have tried our best to present the subject matter in an easy style and in a comprehensive manner. The subject matter is profusely illustrated with a number of clear and labelled diagrams. We sincerely feel that this book will fulfill the requirements of the students as well as teachers. While preparing this book several standard reference books and text books have been consulted. Emphasis has been laid on furnishing maximum information required for students in a simple and lucid language. Zoology is an interesting subject because the animal world is full of diversity, adaptations, habits and habitats and behaviour. There are several textbooks and reference books available written by Indian and foreign authors but these books are too costly and majority of the students are unable to purchase then for comprehensive study.
