ANIMALIA
GANPATHI .S
THE AMERICAN COLLEGE
DEPATMENT OF ZOOLOGY
• INTRODUCTION
• CLASSFICATION
• NOMENCLATURE
• WHAT IS AN INVERTEBRATE
• OUTLINE CLASSIFICATION OF ANIMAL
KINGDOM
INTRODUCTION
• Enormously large number of animals inhabit
the earth today and many more had lived here
in the past.
• These animals vary n their shape and size,
habit and habitat, color, form and weight as
well as I their distribution.
• Animals of all kinds i.e. round, flat, elongated,
fat, and size exist in nature.
Cont.
A considerable part of animals kingdom on
one hand are so small in size that they can
only be observed with the help of a
microscope and many of them also live in
water, on the other hand giant animals like
elephant live on the earth.
Classification
• The Greek philosopher Aristotle (384-322
B.C.), known as Father of zoology in his book
Historia Animalium he classified the animals
and this was followed for about 2000 years.
NOMENCLATURE
• The system of writing scientific name of the
organisms adopted by Linnaeus is called
binominal nomenclature.
• He gave system of writing the name of
organisms in two words .
• The first word of the name belongs to the
genus, other word belongs to that specific
plant or animal and is called species.
Cont.
• Example to the binomial nomencalture the
very popular Indian bird , commonly called
Gauraiya in India,is named as Passer
domesticus.
• Dog- Canis familiaris.
• House fly- Musca domestica.
• Lion- Panthera leo.
What is invertebrate?
• The discribed species of animals are over one
million. Of these, about 5% animals posses a
backbone or vertebral column and are known
as “ Vertebrates ”the remaining animals
which lack backbone or vertebral column are
referred to as “ Invertebrates ”. All such
animals are included in a group “Invertebrata”.
Cont.
• This word is a semantic blanket that covers a
wide range of animals regardless of their size,
shape, morpholigical characteristics and
phylogenetics relationship. We known that
worms, butterflies, sponges, corals, snails,
crabs, and starfishes are not alike in any
specific structure, even then all have been
included in ‘Invertebrata’. This has been
possible only due to the fact that these
animals do not possess a vertebral column.
