Originally published in 1975 Terrestrial Environments covers the
zoogeography and ecology of the main terrestrial environments of
the world, including fresh water habitats with emphasis on their
fauna. The book also explores climate and vegetation in so far as
they affect animal life. Finally, the selective influence of the
environment on its fauna is discussed and, conversely, the
influence of regulation, a synthesis of these interrelations.
Morphological adaptations of the animals inhabiting various types
of terrestrial environments are considered in relation to
locomotion, feeding, and escape from enemies. Physiological
adaptations are also mentioned briefly, and the adaptative
importunate of diurnal and seasonal rhythms is stressed.
