Freshwater Crayfish: A Global Overview

Editat de Tadashi Kawai, Zen Faulkes, Gerhard Scholtz
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 5 aug 2015
For their great commercial importance as a human food delicacy, crayfish are now becoming of wider interest to molecular biologists, and also to conservationists due to the fact that in some countries many of the native crayfish species are under threat from human activity, disease, and competition from other introduced crayfish species. Helmed by three editors in Japan, Europe, and the US, this book invites contributions from experts around the globe, covering the conservation status and biology of all endangered species, taxonomy, and distribution of crayfishes worldwide.
