This volume was first published in 1985. A knowledge of this phylum
of parasitic worms is essential for helminthologists and
instructive for all research workers investigating the principles
of parasitism. Each of the chapters is written by a specialist on
the biology of the Acanthocephala. Systematics, functional
morphology, feeding, nutrition, metabolism, reproduction,
embryology, development, epizootiology, life-history patterns and
population ecology are reviewed and analysed in detail; problems
for further investigation are identified. Special features of the
book include a taxonomic revision and list of valid species,
anatomical illustrations and extensive tables covering
morphological terms, host-parasite associations, life-history
parameters and reproductive biology. The three indices (parasite,
author and subject) and the comprehensive list of over a thousand
references help the reader to use this major source of reference on
a fascinating group of parasites.
