DOWNLOAD EBOOKPapers in this title were selected from presentations from an April 2005 workshop sponsored by the U.S. Geological Survey Earth Surface Dynamics Program, the U.S. Geological Survey National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program, and the Smithsonian Institution. Papers are divided into two broad topics of the configuration, areal extent, and temporal development of the chain of interconnected lakes that emptied into Death Valley during periods of the Pleistocene, and the late Cenozoic history of drainage integration in the lower Colorado River region. Papers are occasionally illustrated in both color and black-and-white; the publication contains no index.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK"The third edition of Ecology and Classification of North American Freshwater Invertebrates continues the tradition of in-depth coverage of the biology, ecology, phylogeny, and identification of freshwater invertebrates from the USA and Canada. This text serves as an authoritative single source for a broad coverage of the anatomy, physiology, ecology, and phylogeny of all major groups of invertebrates in inland waters of North America, north of Mexico." --Book Jacket.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKVolume I in this series reported the scientific results from our survey of the freshwater gastropods of United States Atlantic drainages, Georgia to the New York line. In the preface to that volume, I mentioned that during the 20 years over which the FWGNA Project has unfolded, I developed the habit of sending regular emails to an expanding list of collaborators, a practice which ultimately evolved into an internet blog. Those emails and blog posts have sometimes contained important supplementary information on the biology of the fascinating organisms toward which the FWGNA Project has been directed, as well as historical background, context, and rationale for various methodological and taxonomic decisions made in Volume I.Volume II collected 29 essays on the freshwater pulmonate gastropods. Here in Volume III we have assembled 37 essays on the evolutionary biology and systematics of the prosobranchs, published online between 2006 and 2019. These essays have been edited rather heavily from the form in which they were originally posted, in many cases, and re-ordered into subthemes. Essays 1 - 27 focus on the pleurocerid gastropods, my favorite group of organisms in the world, and essays 28 - 37 the hydrobioids, with topics of general evolutionary and systematic interest sprinkled throughout. Each essay opens with its date of publication, which is important to notice, because single subthemes can span multiple years, and my own thoughts have often evolved over time.We have deferred discussion of the Viviparids and the Ampullariids to Volume IV, which will be organized around ecological and biogeographical themes. This is partly due to space considerations, and partly because the most prominent elements of both families are invasive. It is probably unfair to tar higher taxa by the reputations of their most notorious species. For this I apologize.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Mollusca are a large, diverse, and economically important group that ranges from slugs and snails through clams and oysters to octopus, squid, and cuttlefish. They are evolutionarily ancient and better known than most invertebrate groups because of their calcareous skeletons, which has led to their excellent preservation as fossils. This is a state-of-the-art summary of research into Molluscs and their evolution, including recent developments in phylogenetic analysis and molecular techniques. Since the last book on this topic was published in 1985, the vast amount of updated information found here should be on the bookshelf of every zoologist, evolutionary biologist, and taxonomist.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAll aspects of the ecology of freshwater molluscs are discussed in this unique volume. Extensively referenced and providing a synthesis of work from the nineteenth century onwards, this book will appeal to professional ecologists, evolutionary biologists and parasitologists interested in these diverse invertebrates.
