Calman is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This work provides an extensive overview of the natural history, habits, and classification of Crustacea, aiming to present complex zoological topics in an accessible manner for readers with limited technical background. At the start of the text, the author introduces the reader to the diversity and importance of Crustacea, highlighting familiar examples such as crabs, lobsters, and shrimps. Calman explains that many readers may be surprised to learn that other creatures like barnacles and woodlice are also classified within this group. The opening lays the groundwork for a detailed exploration by addressing the classification of Crustacea within the broader context of the animal kingdom (Arthropoda) and emphasizing their varied adaptations and evolutionary significance. It sets the stage for further chapters that will deepen the reader's understanding of these fascinating animals through their physiological and ecological attributes.
