WHAT'S INCLUDED?
Designed as an advanced biology reference, this high-resolution evolution of animals poster brings complex evolutionary lineages into sharp focus.
Evolutionary Comprehensiveness:From the earliest multicellular organisms to the rise of complex vertebrates, every major animal lineage is presented in a continuous evolutionary framework.
- Detailed visual representations and descriptions of all 9 major animal phyla, along with representative species in high-quality vector art.
- A flowing phylogenetic tree that clearly shows ancestral relationships and evolutionary branching.
- All other 22 minor phyla shown with their names and visuals.
Major Phyla: Each branch of the evolutionary tree includes focused sections covering:
- Porifera (Sponges)
- Cnidaria
- Annelida (Segmented Worms)
- Mollusca (Mollusks)
- Platyhelminthes (Flatworms)
- Nematoda (Roundworms)
- Arthropoda
- Echinodermata
- Chordata (≈Vertebrates)
Every group is paired with concise, classroom-ready text explaining defining traits such as symmetry, segmentation, body cavities, skeletal configurations, and general structural aspects.
Evolutionary Mechanics:
Go beyond simple classification with clear explanations of key evolutionary concepts, including:
- Radial vs. Bilateral Symmetry
- Protostome vs. Deuterostome Embryonic Development
- Segmentation and Cephalisation
- 10+ General Fun Facts
Additional Information:This poster includes divergence times, beautiful colours to indicate major groups of phyla, and accurate branching patterns based on modern evolutionary biology.
Visual Quality: Unlike many posters that use generic or low-resolution stock images, every illustration in this resource was personally drawn as high-quality vector art by me. You are getting a one-of-a-kind design from Knowledge by Leo that you won't find anywhere else on the internet.
PRINTING THIS POSTER
This resource is specifically designed for A2 size (420 x 594 mm), though is much clearer in A1 size (594 x 941 mm) to ensure maximum visibility and clarity.
For the best results, take this file to a local print shop and request an A2 or A1 Colour Poster print. I recommend 200-250 gsm Silk or Matte paper. This provides a premium feel without the distracting glare of a high-gloss finish.
For high-traffic classrooms, laminating your A2 or A1 poster will protect the colours and prevent the edges from curling over time.
