Zoogeography of Arachnida
Author: Petar Beron
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319744186
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 987
Book Description
This volume merges all geographical and paleogeographical data on all groups of the arachnofauna. The book features topics such as the ecological factors, climate and other barriers that influence the distribution of arachnida. It also elaborates on the characteristics of the distribution such as arachnida at high altitude (e.g. Himalaya), in caves, in polar regions and highlights differences between the arachnofauna of e.g. Mediterranean regions vs Central Europe, West African vs Indomalayan and more. Furthermore, amongst other topics the volume also includes chapters on the systems of arachnida, fossil orders, dispersal and dispersion, endemics and relicts, regional arachnogeography, cave and high altitude arachnida.

Scorpions of Medical Importance
Author: Hugh L. Keegan
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Antivenins
Languages : en
Pages : 160
Book Description
This publication is an account of the distribution, morphology, biology and classification of those scorpions considered to be of medical importance. The book also contains information on the clinical aspects of scorpion envenomation, and on methods for scorpion control.Though the scope of this book is clearly delineated by its title, Scorpions of Medical Importance, Professor Keegan does consider those genera and species of scorpions that are not of medical importance, but commonly occur in association with man, and are often greatly feared. He has done so because of the scorpion's potential as a stimulus for entomophobia. While this fear, created in part by folklore, dramatic but inaccurate literature, and television and motion picture sequences, is useful in areas where dangerously venomous scorpions exist, it has also created much needless apprehension. It will surely be a revelation to many readers that of approximately 800 species that have been described, only about 50 have been reported as being dangerous to man.A valuable feature of Scorpions of Medical Importance is the outstanding drawings that have been used to illustrate the species. It is not often that one comes across drawings so striking in their precision and attention to even the most minute details.As one of the very few books dealing solely with the general subject of scorpions of medical importance, this publication should be a useful reference for all of those interested in the distribution, biology, and control of dangerously venomous scorpions, and in clinical aspects of scorpion envenomation.The book also contains an index, bibliography, and pertinent references to related species not discussed in the book.

Influential Passengers
Author: Scott L. O'Neill
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN:
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
The ways in which bacteria can manipulate reproduction of their invertebrate hosts for their own benefit is attracting increasing attention among scientists. It has been discovered that certain bacteria can determine the likelihood of their fruit fly hosts finding a partner to mate with, andthat bacteria infecting woodlice can even cause changes in woodlice offspring. Written by leading experts, this is a timely and readable exploration of a new, exciting, and rapidly expanding area of science.
