Isopod crustaceans are a diverse and ecologically important                group of arthropods that range from terrestrial habitats to the                 deep sea.  They constitute an early and successful evolutionary                 branch of the crustacean family tree.  Dr. George Wilson of the                 Scripps Institute of Oceanography proposes a study of the                       evolutionary relationships among the major groups of isopods.                   Representative species from all isopod suborders will be sampled                for histological sectioning, light, and electron microscopy.                    Genitalic anatomy and morphology will provide most of the data                  for an analysis of evolutionary relationships.                                       The proposed research will establish an evolutionary                       framework for the isopod crustaceans, thereby creating a platform               on which other research projects can be built.  As a result of                  this project, future studies of the form, function, development                 and biogeography of isopods will be set in an evolutionary                      context, providing new insight into the history of crustaceans                  and the process of evolution itself.
