► Description: |
Wetlands
are among the world’s most valuable and most
threatened habitats, and in these crucially
important ecosystems, the invertebrate fauna
holds a focal position. Most of the
biological diversity in wetlands is found
within resident invertebrate assemblages,
and those invertebrates are the primary
trophic link between lower plants and higher
vertebrates (e.g. amphibians, fish, and
birds). As such, most scientists, managers,
consultants, and students who work in the
world’s wetlands should become better
informed about the invertebrate components
in their habitats of interest. Our book
serves to fill this need by assembling the
world’s most prominent ecologists working on
freshwater wetland invertebrates, and having
them provide authoritative perspectives on
each the world’s most important freshwater
wetland types. |
