Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This publication describes Australia's Euastacus crayfish, the largest of the 10 genera of Australian freshwater crayfish. We cover the full 50 Euastacus species found in Australia, from the iconic giant Murray lobsters (Euastacus armatus), which are recreationally fished, to the exceedingly rare tiny species, like Euastacus maidae from the New South Wales-Queensland coastal border region ... The Euastacus crayfish are referred to as 'spiny crayfish' because they have impressive arrays of spines on their hard armoured shells."--Preface.

Book Synopsis Freshwater Crayfish by : Tadashi Kawai

Book excerpt: For their great commercial importance as a human food delicacy, crayfish are now becoming of wider interest to molecular biologists, and also to conservationists due to the fact that in some countries many of the native crayfish species are under threat from human activity, disease, and competition from other introduced crayfish species. Helmed by three editors in Japan, Europe, and the US, this book invites contributions from experts around the globe, covering the conservation status and biology of all endangered species, taxonomy, and distribution of crayfishes worldwide.

Book Synopsis Australia's Megafires by : Stephen van Leeuwen
Download or read book Australia's Megafires written by Stephen van Leeuwen and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2023-02-01 with total page 642 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Australian wildfires of 2019–20 (Black Summer) were devastating and unprecedented. These megafires burnt more than 10 million hectares, mostly of forests in southern and eastern Australia. Many of the fires were uncontrollable. These megafires affected many of Australia’s most important conservation areas and severely impacted threatened species and ecological communities. They were a consequence of climate change – and offered a glimpse of how this is likely to continue to affect our future. Australia’s Megafires includes contributions by more than 200 researchers and managers with direct involvement in the management and conservation of the biodiversity affected by the Black Summer wildfires. It provides a comprehensive review of the impacts of these fires on all components of biodiversity, and on Indigenous cultural values. These fires also triggered an extraordinary and highly collaborative response by governments, NGOs, Indigenous groups, scientists, landholders and others, seeking to recover the fire-affected species and environments – to restore Country. This book documents that response. It draws lessons that should be heeded to sustain that recovery and to be better prepared for the inevitable future comparable catastrophes. Such lessons are of global relevance, for wildfires increasingly threaten biodiversity and livelihoods across the globe.
Book Synopsis The Invertebrate World of Australia's Subtropical Rainforests by : Geoff Williams
Download or read book The Invertebrate World of Australia's Subtropical Rainforests written by Geoff Williams and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 808 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Invertebrate World of Australia’s Subtropical Rainforests is a comprehensive review of Australia’s Gondwanan rainforest invertebrate fauna, covering its taxonomy, distribution, biogeography, fossil history, plant community and insect–plant relationships. This is the first work to document the invertebrate diversity of this biologically important region, as well as explain the uniqueness and importance of the organisms. This book examines invertebrates within the context of the plant world that they are dependent on and offers an understanding of Australia’s outstanding (but still largely unknown) subtropical rainforests. All major, and many minor, invertebrate taxa are described and the book includes a section of colour photos of distinctive species. There is also a strong emphasis on plant and habitat associations and fragmentation impacts, as well as a focus on the regionally inclusive Gondwana Rainforests (Central Eastern Rainforest Reserves of Australia) World Heritage Area. The Invertebrate World of Australia’s Subtropical Rainforests will be of value to professional biologists and ecologists, as well as amateur entomologists and naturalists in Australia and abroad.

Book Synopsis A Guide to the Cockroaches of Australia by : David Rentz
Download or read book A Guide to the Cockroaches of Australia written by David Rentz and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2014-05-29 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cockroaches! Even a mere mention of the word causes many people to recoil in horror. However, of the hundreds of species of cockroaches (or blattodeans as they are known) found in Australia, only a small number of them give the group a bad name. Just a few species that are commonly found in homes, restaurants and hospitals are responsible for thousands of dollars in expenditure to comply with health standards. A Guide to the Cockroaches of Australia is a comprehensive account of most of the 550 described species found in Australia. The book reveals their diversity and beauty, it looks in detail at their morphology, habitats and ecology, and explains how to collect and preserve them. Importantly, it will allow pest controllers, students and researchers to reliably identify most of the common pest species as well as the non-pest cockroaches. It will also, perhaps, go some way towards elevating the reputation of these much-maligned insects, and promote further study of them. 2014 Whitley Award Commendation for Field Guide.

Download or read book Red Claw written by Don R. Wilson and published by Atlas Publications (NC). This book was released on 1995 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Red Claw is a new and very promosing aquaculture species here in America. This book is one of the few sources for complete information on all aspects of the culture of this lobster-sized freshwater crayfish.Compiled from leading-edge research direct from Australia and Auburne University as well as individual findings all over the U.S. this book dispels the 'hype' and furnishes the facts about this little known but highly prized aquaculture species. Fish farmers have managed to become major players in this bottomless market in only a couple of years, and small scale family run operations are harvesting 'short lobsters' in less than a year. Stock prices have fallen dramatically in 2 years, and as a result the startup costs are greatly reduced now.Included in the book contents are photos from 'Down Under', food and feeding regimens needed to raise the Red Claw to giant size, well managed pond factors, hatching and juvenile production, stocking methods, and some marketing, sale and processing tips.
Book Synopsis Marine Decapod Crustacea of Southern Australia by : Gary CB Poore
Download or read book Marine Decapod Crustacea of Southern Australia written by Gary CB Poore and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2004-08-13 with total page 626 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a comprehensive guide to the identification of 800 species of decapod and stomatopod crustaceans from southern Australian marine waters. It is liberally illustrated with more than 1000 line drawings giving good views of many species as well as diagnostic illustrations. Details for each species include the authority, year of description, sometimes a common name, diagnosis, size, geographical distribution, and ecological and depth distribution. The chapter on the Stomatopoda is by Shane Ahyong. Sections within each chapter are hierarchical, species within genera, within families (often with subfamilies as well). Identification is achieved through the use of dichotomous keys adapted from many originally published in the primary literature, or developed from scratch. Some keys are to all Australian taxa but most are to southern Australian taxa only. The information in this book derives from over 200 years of collecting in southern Australian environments, from the intertidal to the deep sea, and publications in numerous journals in several languages. More than 800 of these papers and books are cited. Winner of the 2005 Whitley Award for Systematics.
