Malang Regency has a high potential for diversity of invertebrates and vertebrates, so it needs to be optimized as a learning resource. The purpose of this study was to analyze invertebrate and vertebrate animals based on the local potency of Malang Regency as a learning resource for animal diversity subjects in biology students at the Universitas Negeri Malang. Animal diversity subjects require learning resources as a reference that is used to teach the diversity of invertebrate and vertebrate animals based on their characteristics. This research was conducted in the southern Malang Regency in May-August 2019. The research design used the exploration method. The results of this exploration activity obtained a diversity of invertebrate and vertebrate species as many as 6 phyla namely Coelenterata, Mollusca, Arthropoda, Echinodermata, Annelida, and Chordata; 13 classes; 29 orders; 42 families, 51 genera, and 55 species. This research can reveal the potency of invertebrate and vertebrate animals in the Malang Regency which can be used as learning resources in animal diversity subjects at Universitas Negeri. © 2020 Author(s).
