International Review of General and Experimental Zoology, Volume 1 is a collection of world literature concerning developments in general and experimental zoology. This book is composed of 9 chapters, and begins with an overview of foraminiferal biology. Foraminifera are single-cell animals, which extrude granuloreticulose pseudopodia and construct monothalamous or polythalamous shells of an organic, arenaceous, or calcareous nature. The succeeding chapters explore the significance of life span in biting insects, and the optic and static components of equilibrium orientation in fish, as well as their evaluation in the central nervous system. These topics are followed by discussions on environment and reproduction in domesticated species; experimental, histochemical, and ultrastructural studies of mammalian pituitary function; and the reproductive biology of strepsirhine. The final chapters examine the phylogenesis of vertebrate mineralized tissues and the effect of chronic exposure to increased gravity on growth and form of animals. This book will prove useful to zoologists.
