The arthropods contain more species than any other animal group, but the evolutionary pathways which led to their current diversity are still an issue of contro

Compared to other arthropods, crustaceans are characterized by an unparalleled disparity of body plans. Traditionally, the specialization of arthropod segments

More than two thirds of all living organisms described to date belong to the phylum Arthropoda. But their diversity, as measured in terms of species number, is
