About this title

Synopsis

Insects are a diverse, numerous and important group in aquatic habitats, occupying key functional and ecological roles. This edited volume brings together acknowledged experts in often disparate fields ranging from physiology through ecology to evolution to consider in a unified manner the challenges facing insect populations in aquatic environments and how they have adapted to achieve such prominence in virtually all habitats. It will be of central interest to researchers and students in aquatic insects and general entomology.

Review

"For anyone teaching an aquatic entomology course, this book would be an excellent reference...most aquatic ecologists would benefit from having this book on their shelves as a reference text." (Randall L. Fuller, Colgate University 2009-01-01)

"[A] very valuable source of up-to-date reviews...highly recommended for advanced students and researchers." (Basic and Applied Ecology)
