Beskrivning
The Crustacea is one of the dominant invertebrate groups, displaying a staggering diversity in form and function, and spanning the full spectrum of Earth's environments. Crustaceans are increasingly used as model organisms in all fields of biology, as few other taxa exhibit such a variety of body shapes and adaptations to particular habitats and environmental conditions. In the tenth and final volume of "The Natural History of the Crustacea" series, Ecology and Conservation emphasizes that understanding the ecological roles of crustaceans is fundamental to achieve their conservation in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. Written by internationally recognized experts studying a wide range of crustacean taxa and topics, this volume synthesizes current research in a format that is accessible to a wide scientific audience.

Mer om författaren

Lars Gutow is a marine biologist with strong interest in benthic ecology. He is studying the responses of species and ecosystems to changing environmental conditions. He is also investigating seafloor habitats and species community dynamics in the context of marine conservation. Martin Thiel is a marine biologist with strong interest in animal behavior and natural history. During the past 25 years, he has conducted studies on crustacean behavior ranging from evolution of parental care behaviors to mating interactions and anti-predator behaviors. He is also interested in dispersal ecology and biogeography, and in promoting the participation of citizen scientists in marine research.

Recensioner i media

Crustaceans are bizarre, beautiful and extremely diverse in their morphology, behavior, lifestyle and ecology. The book provides a fascinating overview of the importance of their diversity, ecology, anthropogenic drivers impacting life cycles, distribution and invasion and documenting the urgent need for conservation. It is fun reading and learning. Who has not been in love with crustaceans will be now!". - Angelika Brandt, Professor for Marine Zoology, Senckenberg Research Institute and Natural History Museum
