BIOL 627 Marine Tetrapod Biology (4)

This lecture, laboratory, and field course emphasizes both the diversity and common themes of the physiological, behavioral, and anatomical adaptations that characterize certain lineages of reptiles, birds, and mammals that exploit a wide array of marine habitats. Highlighting the faunas of South Carolina, we will evaluate marine tetrapods as models for advanced studies in evolution, physiology, behavior, ecology, and conservation.
Prerequisite(s): Ecology (BIOL 341) or its equivalent and at least one additional advanced biology course such as Genetics or Vertebrate Zoology.
Course Frequency: Fall
Cross-Listing: EVSS 627
