Limulus in the Limelight: A Species 350 Million Years in the Making
and in Peril? contains 14 chapters covering the horseshoe crab's
biology, ecology and evolutionary development. The book is a result
of three mini-conferences held between 1996 and 2000 celebrating
the populations in NY harbor. This book exposes the impacts of over
fishing on this species; clarifies the future research agenda for
the species worldwide and emphasizes the need for conservation of
this fascinating creature's estuaries/ocean habitats. Biologists,
ecologists, science educators, and conservationists will welcome
this book because it is aimed at the preservation of Limulus, not
only for its pharmacological interest but for the mystery related
to its longevity. Limulus is a unique animal which has provided
numerous uses for man over the years, from fertilizer to bait to
medical research. However, if this species is not protected soon,
it will be lost for the future.
