Aeglidae focuses on these unique crustaceans who are endemic to
South America. The book is the first to summarize the diverse
aspects of the Aeglidae, whose taxonomic features and phylogenetic
relationships, evolutionary history and biogeographical background,
biological characteristics, and current conservation awareness make
them stand out among all other decapods. Addresses the morphology,
taxonomy, and phylogenetics that characterize the Aegla and their
relationship to other decapod taxa Provides in-depth treatment of
the evolutionary history, biogeography, reproduction, developmental
biology, and the life cycle of the Aeglidae Discusses their
physiology, ecology and behavior, including physiological
mechanisms associated with freshwater adaptation, population
dynamics, trophic ecology, agonistic and non-agonistic behavior
Covers the current conservation status of all known species of
aeglids, major threats to them, the use of aeglids as flagships or
umbrella species, and conservation action planning Edited by
internationally distinguished leaders in this field. This will be
an important reference not only for carcinologists working with
this family of decapods, but also readers interested in the
evolution, biogeography, taxonomy, phylogenetics, physiology, and
reproductive ecology.
