  1. Kunming Natural History Museum of Zoology

    The Kunming Natural History Museum of Zoology is located on the campus of Kunming Institute of Zoology , the Chinese Academy of Sciences CAS . The museum is an important project of the CAS Knowledge Innovation Program, and a joint project of the CAS and the Yunnan Provincial Government. The Kunming Natural History Museum of Zoology presents the diversity of fauna, past and present, of Southwest China. It started earth construction in 2000 and opened to the public since November 2006. Various specimens collected by several generations of scientists in Kunming Institute of Zoology are fundamental basis for the establishment of the museum. A trio of dino skeletons dominate the prehistoric exhibit on the first floor. These plant eaters stomped around Yunnan about 200 million years ago. Though the biggest of the three is a cast, the smaller ones are genuine bones, exhumed from Yunnan s Lufeng Basin in the 1980s. Though the prehistoric exhibit is the most impressive, there are plenty of animals to be seen on all of the museum s three floors. An array of taxidermied mammals and birds lines the display cases of the second floor. Up another flight of stairs reveals a Rainforest Adventure, which walks visitors along a path through synthetic trees, bird calls and a darkened cave. There are rigid fish and snakes entombed in formaldehyde jars. Because of the museum s affiliation with the Chinese Academy of Sciences , it is well positioned as both a tourist attraction and a home to future zoological scholarship. Most of the visitors come with a scientific background.

    Unreferenced date September 2008 Invertebrate zoology is the biology biological academic discipline discipline that consists of the study of invertebrate animals, i.e. animals without a vertebral column backbone a structure which is found only in fish , amphibian s, reptile s, bird s and mammal s. Invertebrates are a vast and very diverse group of animals that includes sponges , echinoderm s, tunicate s, numerous different phylum phyla of worms, mollusc s, arthropod s and many additional phyla. Single celled organisms or protist s are usually not included within the same group as invertebrates. Invertebrates are 97 of all named animal species , and because of that fact, this subdivision of zoology has many further subdivisions, including but not limited to Arthropodology the study of arthropods , which includes Arachnology the study of spiders and other arachnid s Entomology the study of insect s Carcinology the study of crustacean s Myriapodology the study of centipede s, millipede s, and other myriapod s Malacology the study of mollusk s Invertebrate paleontology the study of extinct invertebrates These divisions are sometimes further divided into more specific specialties. For example, within arachnology, acarology is the study of mite s and tick s within entomology, lepidoptery is the study of butterflies and moth s, and so on.

In zoology , sessility is a characteristic of animal s which are not able to move about. They are usually permanently attached to a solid substrate biology substrate of some kind, such as a rock geology rock , or the Hull watercraft hull of a ship in the case of barnacle s. Coral s lay down their own substrate. Sessile animals typically have a motile phase in their development. Sponge s have a motility motile larval stage, which becomes sessile at maturity. In contrast, many jellyfish develop as sessile polyp s early in their life cycle. Many sessile animals, including sponges, coral s and hydra genus hydra , are capable of asexual reproduction in situ by the process of budding . Clumping is a behavior in an animal, usually sessile, in which individuals of a particular species group close to one another for beneficial purposes, and can be seen in coral reef s.
