Studies on Large Brachiopod Biology and Aquaculture

This text contains a collection of papers dealing with various aspects of the biology and aquaculture of the large branchiopod crustacea - the Anostraca, Conchostraca, and Notostraca. Included are many of the papers presented at the Second International Large Branchiopod Symposium convened in Ulm, Germany, 30 July-3 August 1993. Additional manuscripts contributed by colleagues who were unable to attend are also included. A special feature of this volume is a checklist of the Anostraca, including information on distribution, location of type material, taxonomic problems and literature references.
