Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the complex structure of the insect head, detailing its function and evolution. The author argues that while the insect head has not changed much since the first entomologists described it, our understanding of its complexity and composition has grown. Through a combination of embryological and anatomical evidence, this book challenges dominant ideas about the segmentation of the insect head and suggests that the adult head is a composite structure that includes at least three segments added to the primitive head during embryonic development. The book also presents a detailed exploration of the insect head's various sclerites, sutures, and sulci, and their functional significance in supporting the head and providing muscle attachment points. This book will be of interest to entomologists, zoologists, and anyone interested in the intricate biology of insects. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781333597863_0
