Larval Stages of Northeastern Atlantic Crabs

An illustrated key

Beschreibung

North East Atlantic waters are inhabited by over 120 species of lobster and crab-like crustaceans. Accurate identification of their larvae is necessary for basic research into these animals and also in the assessment of adult stocks of the commerical species. The larval stages of many occur frequently in plankton but are often difficult to identify due to limited knowledge of their morphology.

Rezensionen

"Both sections are copiously illustrated, including a superb series of SEM plates of setal and other cuticular structures...the book is far more than a key to our local crab larvae...it provides a useful review of comparative larval morphology, backed by Ray's excellent illustrations...If you can afford the book, buy it for it will form an attractive and useful addition to any marine biological library" -- Journal of Natural History

"A helpful tool for planktonic research in adjacent areas." -- Ethology

"...the book is an indispensable reference..." -- Amer 2001
