Readership
Students and researchers in nematology, freshwater ecology, invertebrate zoology and limnology.

Main Description
Drawing together the work of 25 nematologists from 12 countries, this book examines the taxonomy and ecology of freshwater nematodes. The ecology section explores their distribution, diversity, abundance, biomass, and their relation to their physico-chemical and biological environment. The second section gives a taxonomic account of freshwater nematodes with pictorial keys at the genus level and a complete list of species within each genus. The book also summarizes previous work in the area and indicates avenues for future research. Overall, it provides a unique synthesis of a subject that has previously been poorly documented, and it should remain a standard reference work for many years.
