Book Description
Excerpt from Monograph of the Land and Freshwater Mollusca of the British Isles: Zonitidae, Endodontidae, Helicidae It is further very gratifying to find that the truth of the principles governing the Distribution of Life propounded in the present work, and firmly based on organic structure, continues to be increasingly supported by the additional knowledge acquired; while the especial suitability of the land mollusca for revealing the routes of dispersal from the primary evolutionary area was emphatically proclaimed by the late Karl Semper, who after many years' examination and study of many hundreds of species was led more and more strongly to the conviction that a knowledge of the affinities of the land mollusca would probably enable the paths of their dispersion to be determined. The co-operation and help which I have received in the past from so many well-wishers has been continued during the preparation of the present volume, and I again recall with grateful appreciation the immense help I still continue to derive from the results of the unwearied and nu selfish labours of the late Mr. Charles ashford, who for so long a period devoted himself to a study of the anatomy of our British mollusks for the benefit of the present Work.

Invertebrates
Author: Sajal Ray
Publisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 1839685514
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
Invertebrates exhibit a wide range of diversity in body plan, physiology, behaviour, adaptation and preferences for habitat and food. Their relationship with the environment is unique and multidimensional. This book is organized into two sections containing chapters on the frontier areas of research in ecophysiology and management-related problems of various invertebrates. Topics covered include hibernation physiology; the amelioration potential of drug and parasitic host response of molluscs; the genetics and biology of hydrocorals; and current trends of management, aquaculture, and harvesting of ecologically and economically important molluscs and sponges. This book is an enriched edition of invertebrate zoology and is a useful source of information for researchers and students in various disciplines. In recent years, a paradigm shift in research on invertebrates has occurred under the backdrop of climate change and environmental contamination. This important shift in the research is well reflected in this book.
