"Report on the Isopoda Collected by H. M. S. Challenger During the Years 1873-76, Pt 11" by Frank E. Beddard offers a detailed scientific account of isopods gathered during the renowned Challenger expedition. This report meticulously documents the various species of isopods encountered, providing valuable insights into their morphology, distribution, and habitat. Part of the broader scientific reports stemming from the Challenger's extensive oceanographic survey, this work contributes significantly to the field of marine zoology. The Challenger expedition, a pioneering endeavor in marine exploration, laid the groundwork for modern oceanography, and Beddard's report remains a key reference for researchers studying crustaceans and marine biodiversity. This edition preserves the original text and illustrations, ensuring its continued accessibility to scientists, historians, and anyone interested in the legacy of marine research.
