Phylogenetic analysis of arthropods using two nuclear protein-encoding genes supports a crustacean + hexapod clade JeĦrey W. Shultz1* and Jerome C. Regier2 1Department of Entomology, University of Maryland, College Park, MD 20742, USA ( js314@umail.umd.
We performed a cladistic analysis of 25 characters to determine how the chelicerates, crustaceans, and uniramids should be classified, possibly under 1 phylum, Arthropoda, or in 2 or more phyla.
Arthropods are the most diverse group of organisms on our planet and the tropical rainforests represent the most biologically diverse of all ecosystems.
Your Everything Bug Store, At Bugs in Cyberspace we're determined to become the first resource-gateway for the largest variety of bug-related products and services. We'll use a variety of creative means to interface between manufacturers, dealers, breeders, schools and universities, artists, hobbyists, conservation societies and general curiosity-seekers.
The arthropods are far and away the dominant form of life on earth today, and presumably were so in the past as well. Most lack a mineralized skeleton, which probably accounts for their typically poor fossil record. There are, however, taxa within the Arthropoda with fair to quite good records.
