Description for Ecomorphology of Fishes
Hardback. Reviews early attempts at qualitative descriptions of ecomorphological patterns in fishes, especially those of the Russian school. This volume documents: how the morphology of bony fishes constrains ecological patterns and the use of resources; and whether ecological constraints can narrow the niche beyond the limits imposed by morphology. Editor(s): Luczkovich, Joseph J.; Motta, Philip J.; Norton, Stephen F.; Liem, Karel F. Series: Developments in Environmental Biology of Fishes. Num Pages: 307 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PSVW1. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 279 x 210 x 19. Weight in Grams: 766.
Ecomorphology is the comparative study of the influence of morphology on ecological relationships and the evolutionary impact of ecological factors on morphology in different life intervals, populations, species, communities, and evolutionary lineages. The book reviews early attempts at qualitative descriptions of ecomorphological patterns in fishes, especially those of the Russian school. More recent, quantitative studies are emphasised, including multivariate approaches to ecomorphological analysis, the selection of functionally important ecological and morphological variables to analyze, an experimental approach using performance tests to examine specific hypotheses derived from functional morphology, and the ...
