Abstract
The plan for this chapter is to present, for the generalist, an overview of those aspects of the biology of bryozoans that are related directly to their procurement for and maintenance in the laboratory and to draw attention to the pertinent literature, particularly that of the 15 years since the Hyman (l959) volume. The data and opinions presented are derived from the author’s field and laboratory research and experience with the bryozoa of the northeastern United States coastal waters, from word of mouth information from colleagues, and from the literature.
