Arthropods are the most diverse group of organisms on our planet
and the tropical rainforests represent the most biologically
diverse of all ecosystems. This book, written by 79 authors
contributing to 35 chapters, aims to provide an overview of data
collected during recent studies in Australia, Africa, Asia, and
South America. The book focuses on the distribution of arthropods
and their use of resources in the rainforest canopies, providing a
basis for comparison between the forest ecosystems of the main
biogeographical regions. Topics covered include the distribution of
arthropods along vertical gradients and the relationship between
the soil/litter habitat and the forest canopy. The temporal
dynamics of arthropod communities, habitats and food selection are
examined within and among tropical tree crowns, as are the effects
of forest disturbance. This important book is a valuable addition
to the literature used by community ecologists, conservation
biologists entomologists, botanists and forestry experts.
