Organismal biology

April 15, 2005 3:30 PM

BIODIDACA bank of digital resources for teaching biology:

• Cross section of a leech through the reproductive organs.
• Basic circulatory pattern of vertebrates illustrated in a shark.
• Detail of a grana stack of thylakoids in a chloroplast.
• Side view of the Mollusc veliger larval stage.
• Sporangia of bread mold showing asexual reproduction

And much, much, more, including B&W and color diagrams (with annotations), photographs, and some videos. Copying the material is permitted with conditions. Also available en français.

And if that is not enough taxonavigation for you, head over to Wikispecies.

Wow. That's pretty awesome. I could have used this at the beginning of the semester, that's for sure.
