Deichmann received a grant to study at Pacific Grove, California in 1924 and worked at the British Museum two years later. She was awarded her Ph.D by Radcliffe College in 1927 and then became assistant zoologist at the United States Bureau of Fisheries the following year. She received an Agassiz Fellowship at the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard University in 1929 and then became assistant curator of invertebrates in 1930. Deichmann was promoted to curator in 1942 and retired in 1961, but retained an emerita post until 1975.Ogilvie & Harve ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Animals Described In 1936
Animals are multicellular, eukaryotic organisms in the biological kingdom Animalia. With few exceptions, animals consume organic material, breathe oxygen, are able to move, can reproduce sexually, and go through an ontogenetic stage in which their body consists of a hollow sphere of cells, the blastula, during embryonic development. Over 1.5 million living animal species have been described—of which around 1 million are insects—but it has been estimated there are over 7 million animal species in total. Animals range in length from to . They have complex interactions with each other and their environments, forming intricate food webs. The scientific study of animals is known as zoology. Most living animal species are in Bilateria, a clade whose members have a bilaterally symmetric body plan. The Bilateria include the protostomes, containing animals such as nematodes, arthropods, flatworms, annelids and molluscs, and the deuterostomes, containing the echinoderms and ...
