Wetlands are among the world’s most valuable and most threatened habitats, and in these crucially important ecosystems, the invertebrate fauna holds a focal position. Most of the biological diversity in wetlands is found within resident invertebrate assemblages, and those invertebrates are the primary trophic link between lower plants and higher vertebrates (e.g. amphibians, fish, and birds). As such, most scientists, managers, consultants, and students who work in the world’s wetlands should become better informed about the invertebrate components in their habitats of interest. Our book serves to fill this need by assembling the world’s most prominent ecologists working on freshwater ... Read more

Reviews for Invertebrates in Freshwater Wetlands
“Invertebrates in Freshwater Wetlands, the editors, along with their contributing authors, address this knowledge gap by summarizing published research on wetlands from temperate and tropical regions and from lowland to alpine systems. … A book dedicated to invertebrate ecology and diversity in wetlands is overdue. Aquatic ecologists, natural resource managers, and even educated general readers will find this an interesting ... Read more
