List of bilateral animal orders

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The relative number of species contributed to the total by each phylum of animals. Arthropoda is the phylum with the most individual organisms.
Superb fairy-wren, Malurus cyaneus
Differences between Deuterostomes and Protostomes
Yellow-winged darter, Sympetrum flaveolum
Pseudobiceros bedfordi, (Bedford's flatworm)
The use of love darts by the land snail Monachoides vicinus is a form of sexual selection
