9781390343731: Notes on Crustacea

Synopsis

This book documents the crustaceans collected by G. M. Dawson from 1878-9 in Vancouver and the Queen Charlotte Islands. The author, S. I. Smith, scrutinizes the features of each sample to meticulously categorize them. The findings expand upon what little was known about crustaceans in this region during that time, capturing a moment in history that has since been altered because of human impact on the environment. Smith's work not only serves as a valuable record but also underscores the significance of preserving marine ecosystems.
