Description:
Aquatic insects are the dominant invertebrate fauna in most freshwater ecosystems, and figure prominently in the work of a diverse range of researchers, students, and environmental managers. Aquatic Entomology is suitable for those interested in the subject from a perspective of either basic or applied ecology. It will also be a valuable supplementary text for courses in limnology or freshwater ecology, entomology, and water resource management.
Provides the first up-to-date overview of aquatic insect biology, assuming no detailed knowledge of entomology.
Adopts a truly global focus, avoiding a northern hemisphere bias that characterizes many existing books.
Collates and synthesizes a widely dispersed literature, creating a single resource for research, tuition and management.
Clearly structured around four broadly themed sections: distribution patterns and environmental gradients, dispersal and movement, population dynamics and persistence, and trophic relationship.
