What reading level is Animal Forms: a Second book of Zoology book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
parent creatures often seen swimming in great numbers at the surface of the sea or hiding among the seaweeds along the shore. In general appearance they resemble crayfishes or prawns, but are readily distinguished by the two-branched thoracic feet. This "split-foot" character also occurs among many of the preceding Crustacea, and is generally a badge of low organization, tending to disappear in the more highly organized forms. In this and other respects the shrimps are especially interesting in... their relation to the preceding Crustacea, and in the fact that they may closely resemble the ancestors of the modern prawns (Fig.
58), lobsters, crayfishes, and crabs.
102. Crayfishes and lobsters. — The last-mentioned spe- cies and their allies, usually large and familiar forms, con- stitute a group known as the decapods (meaning ten feet), referring to the number of thoracic feet. Among the mem- bers of this division probably none are more familiar than the crayfishes, which occur in most of the larger rivers and their tributaries throughout the United States and Europe.
