(Nemertea, Enopla, Carcinonemertidae) from the branchial chambers of Pinnixa chaetopterana (Crustacea, Decapoda, Pinnotheridae): description, incidence and biological relationships with the host.- Ecological studies of the nemertean fauna in an estuarine system of the northwestern Gulf of Mexico.- Two: Taxonomy and Phylogeny.- Methods of classifying nemerteans: an assessment.- Phylogeny, natural groups and nemertean classification.- Major characters and enoplan systematics.- Observations on the morphology of some North American nemertines with consequent taxonomic changes and a reassessment of the architectonics of the phylum.- A reassessment of the systematics and a proposal for the phylogeny of some cosmopolitan Lineus species (Nemertea).- A proposal for a check-list of characteristics to be used in the description of palaeonemertean species.- The genus Valdivianemertes Stiasny-Wijnhoff 1923 (Nemertea, Enopla, Hoplonemertea): nomenclatural status and proper systematic position.- Paralineopsis taki gen. et sp. nov., a littoral heteronemertean from Japan, provided with special proboscideal, circulatory and sensory organs of significance to nemertean systematics.- Riserius pugetensis gen. n., sp. n. (Nemertina: Anopla), a new mesopsammic species, and comments on phylogenetics of some anoplan characters.- Enzyme electrophoresis, genetic identity and description of a new genus and species of heteronemertean (Nemertea, Anopla) from northwestern Spain and North Wales.- Morphological variation in the palaeonemertean Tubulanus annulatus (Montagu 1804).- Three: General Biology.- Evidence for a FMRFamide-like peptide in the heteronemertine Cerebratulus lacteus Leidy.- Molecular approaches to the study of evolution and phylogeny of the Nemertina.- The influence of light and sea water temperature on the reproductive cycle of Lineus ruber (Heteronemertea).- Patterns of trace metal accumulation in Swedish marine nemerteans.

  • Water from a Transdisciplinary Perspective
    Ana Isabel Pereira Cardoso / Teresinha M. Gonçalves
    Life in cities has distanced human beings from nature and made it difficult to understand the ecology of life dependent on the environment. Urban water collection and distribution processes contribute significantly to the fragmentation of knowledge and the vital recognition of the water cycle. Without the effective participation of the subject in environmental actions, it is no...

  • Modeling Populations of Adaptive Individuals
    Bret C. Harvey / Steven F. Railsback
    Ecologists now recognize that the dynamics of populations, communities, and ecosystems are strongly affected by adaptive individual behaviors. Yet until now, we have lacked effective and flexible methods for modeling such dynamics. Traditional ecological models become impractical with the inclusion of behavior, and the optimization approaches of behavioral ecology cannot be use...

    Aaron Ellison / Aaron M. Ellison / Nicholas J. Gotelli
    A groundbreaking approach to scale and scaling in ecological theory and practiceScale is one of the most important concepts in ecology, yet researchers often find it difficult to find ecological systems that lend themselves to its study. Scaling in Ecology with a Model System synthesizes nearly three decades of research on the ecology of Sarracenia purpurea-the northern pitcher...

    The essential introduction to population ecology-now expanded and fully updatedEcology is capturing the popular imagination like never before, with issues such as climate change, species extinctions, and habitat destruction becoming ever more prominent. At the same time, the science of ecology has advanced dramatically, growing in mathematical and theoretical sophistication. He...

  • Physiological Ecology
    Carlos Martínez del Rio / William H. Karasov
    Unlocking the puzzle of how animals behave and how they interact with their environments is impossible without understanding the physiological processes that determine their use of food resources. But long overdue is a user-friendly introduction to the subject that systematically bridges the gap between physiology and ecology. Ecologists--for whom such knowledge can help clarif...
  • Critical Transitions in Nature and Society
    Marten Scheffer
    How do we explain the remarkably abrupt changes that sometimes occur in nature and society--and can we predict why and when they happen? This book offers a comprehensive introduction to critical transitions in complex systems--the radical changes that happen at tipping points when thresholds are passed. Marten Scheffer accessibly describes the dynamical systems theory behind cr...
