"Meighen Island is a keystone site in the Neogene Canadian High Arctic, unique in the Beaufort Formation for its interbedded marine tongue. This volume is a comprehensive report on the biostratigraphy, age, and correlation of Meighen Island to other important Arctic localities from the standpoint of deposits exposed in the area of Bjaere Bay on the west side of the Island. The authors consider the diverse fossil macrofloras and pollen, the terrestrial and marine faunas, magnetostratigraphy, and amino acid racemization and put this site in the context of major changes in climate and geography during the Pliocene"--

Thorp and Covich's Freshwater Invertebrates: Keys to Palaearctic Fauna, Fourth Edition, is part of a multivolume series covering inland water invertebrates of the world that began with Vol. I: Ecology and General Biology (2015), then Vol. II (2016) Keys to Nearctic Fauna, and finally in Vol. III (2018) Keys to Neotropical Hexapoda (insects and springtails). It now continues with identification keys for Palearctic invertebrates in Vol. IV. Two other volumes currently in development focus on general invertebrates of the Neotropical/Antarctic, and Australasian Bioregions. Other volumes in the early planning stages include Afrotropical and Oriental/Oceanic Bioregions. All volumes are designed for multiple uses and levels of expertise by professionals in universities, government agencies and private companies, as well as by graduate and undergraduate students.
