24" x 36" full color laminated poster.
Arthropods are animals that have an external skeleton. They are the most abundant animals on Earth but are often misunderstood. Spiders, millipedes, and other arthropods are often mistakenly referred to as “insects” and “bugs.” This poster explains the differences.
Each of the five clades (formerly subphylum) is carefully explored. Highly detailed illustrations show an incredible 98 species, many life size. All are identified by both common and scientific names.
Insects account for the great bulk of the arthropods, and this poster includes representatives of all the major orders. The crustaceans include crabs and lobsters as well as shrimp, krill, and even barnacles. Included with them is the giant sea scorpion; this long-extinct animal is the largest arthropod that ever lived, reaching a length of six feet.
This remarkable poster even includes the prehistoric trilobites. They were the dominant life form during the Permian but became extinct. Highly educational, very attractive, and decorative, this poster appeals to teachers, students, collectors, and professional entomologists.

This is a beautiful poster that is cherished by animal lovers, but it’s also an extremely useful educational tool, as it provides a comprehensive overview of the subject. It is divided into three sections, one for each type of mammal: the egg-laying monotremes, the pouched marsupials, and the familiar placental mammals. The latter is divided into 19 subsections, one for each of the orders. Superb, highly detailed illustrations show 98 representative species, including everything from the aardvark to the zebra.
This poster is an excellent way to introduce young children to a great many animals. However, its outstanding organization and presentation make it an invaluable reference chart for teachers, students, and professionals involved or interested in zoology, comparative anatomy, and taxonomy, the naming and classification of life forms.
