GEOS312: Invertebrate Palaeontology |
This unit investigates the evolution, classification, and techniques of preparation of stratigraphically important invertebrate groups, particularly brachiopods, cnidarians, echinoderms, molluscs and trilobites; particular attention is given to functional morphology and evolutionary phylogeny. The unit has a weekend excursion and provides hands on experience in identifying and collecting invertebrate fossil materials.
