  • Arthropods

    They are armored creatures with jointed legs and they have developed elaborate behavior patterns that assure survival. They are also the most successful phylum in the animal kingdom–phylum Arthropoda. This program explores the major classes of arthropods through dramatic photography of living examples: The Crustaceans (including all major crustacean groups); The Arachnids (including whip scorpions, scorpions, spiders, ticks and mites); and the Uniramians (including centipedes, millipedes, and insects). The program highlights important details of structure and behavior, incorporating both familiar and unusual examples (such as forehead mites and barnacles) that will serve as memorable insights into Arthropod biology.
