Ecology and Morphology of Copepods

This text is organized under the following general topics: behaviour, feeding, genetics, horizontal variations, morphology, phylogeny, reproduction, seasonal changes, vertical distribution, plus two special sessions on copepods of the genus Acartia and cyclopid/mosquito interactions. The Maxilliped Lecture, given by Dr. Arthur G. Humes of Boston University, clearly established the importance of copepods to the earth's organic diversity. The book consists of selected research articles from the different sections. The articles published here reflect the diverse research interests of copepodologists today.
