MARINE INVERTEBRATES ABBOTT 
Survey of the lower marine invertebrates, echinoderms, and 
protochordates. Emphasis is placed on basic body plan, func- 
tional anatomy, pattern of development, higher classification, 
and phylogenetic relationships, rather than on detailed 
morphology and species identification. 
GENERAL MICROBIOLOGY VAN NIEL 
This course will be concerned mainly with the methods 
of culture, the morphology, general physiology and ecology 
of representative types of micro-organisms. 
ECOLOGICAL PHYSIOLOGY GIESE 
Physiological responses of animals to variations in environ- 
mental factors and to organisms. Most of the work will deal 
wil marine invertebrates. 
SPECIAL PROBLEMS (see above, autum, winter, and spring 
quarters) 
RESEARCH (see also above, autum, winter, and spring quarters) 
Candidates for advanced degrees may work on thesis problems 
with staff members, in either half of the quarter or during 
the full quarter. 
SECOND HALF 
MARINE INVERGEBRATES (continued) ABBOTT 
Continuation of Course 111h, covering the molluscs, annelids, 
arthropods, and allied lesser phyla. While the two courses 
form a continuous sequence, either half may be taken 
separately when space permits. 
GENERAL ICHTHYOLOGY COHEN 
An introduction to the study of fishes;,including the elements 
of morphology, taxonomy, embryology, natural history, and 
principles and techniques of conservation. Commercially 
important, very common, or spectacularly modified groups 
of North American fishes are stressed, and local material 
collected by the class if used in the laboratory.
