These are web pages created by students of the invertebrate zoology class. All of these species are ones that can be found locally, so if you haven't had the chance to beach comb in SE Alaska this can give you an idea of the colorful world between the tides! You can browse through the pictures here or click on the name links to see more in-depth information on a species' taxonomy, characteristics, life history, ecology and distribution. More pages will be added every spring.
