• Arthropod Cuticle – a natural composite shell system. Julian F V Vincent, Dept of Mechanical Engineering, The University of Bath - A very lucid although somewhat technical discussion of the cuticle.
• How the arthropod skeleton has been exploited in the colonisation of the land
• Aspects of Arthropodan Biology - the Arthropodan Adaptive Suite - Interesting discussion of cuticle and its impacts. [Ignore comments on polyphyletic origin of Arthropoda at the end.]
