This volume is a collection of papers concerning the biology of
large branchiopod crustaceans: Anostraca, Conchostraca, and
Notostraca. Many of the individual papers were first presented at
the Third International Large Branchiopod Symposium (ILBS-3) held
at the University of San Diego, CA, USA, July 15-18, 1996.
Contributions on additional topics from participants at the
symposium, and from colleagues not able to join us in San Diego,
are also included. In addition, there is a supplement to the 1995
Checklist of the Anostraca'. The theme of the ILBS-3 was
understanding and conserving large branchiopod diversity'.
Researchers from around the world presented papers on a variety of
topics related to conservation of large branchiopods, with
contributions ranging from alpha-taxonomy and zoogeography to
community structure and studies of ecology and evolution. One
important issue developed in many of the papers in this volume is
the need to advance our understanding of basic aspects of
branchiopod biology throughout the world in order to enhance our
efforts to conserve them. Although we have made important strides
in understanding the biology of large branchiopods, we have, with
few notable exceptions, made little progress in assuring the
conservation of their diversity. We hope this volume will supply
the reader with new ideas, and generate enthusiasm for research and
public education efforts on behalf of branchiopod conservation.
