1st. Hard. New. 10 7 1. Ecology of North American Freshwater Fishes provides readers with a broad understanding of why specific species and assemblages occur in particular places. Additionally, the text explores how individuals and species interact with each other and with their environments, how such interactions have been altered by anthropogenic impacts, and the relative success of efforts to restore damaged ecosystems. Published by the University of California Press, 2013. Clean and crisp copy. New.

1st. Hard. Fine. 10 7.75 0.75. Ecology and Evolution of Parasitism is the first book to provide a broad synthesis of both the roles and consequences of pathogens on the ecology and evolution of free living systems. It focuses on hosts rather than the parasites themselves, integrating those aspects related to the ecology and the evolution of free-living species (sexual selection, behaviour, life history traits, regulation of populations etc.). The book includes examples across a range of scales from individuals to populations, communities and ecosystems. Published by OUP Oxford, 2009. Clean, crisp copy. Fine except for superficial marks on back cover.

3rd. Hard. VG. 11 8.75 1.75. 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 edition is in color for the first time and includes greatly expanded classification of many phyla. Elsevier Science, 2010. Clean, crisp copy except for intials inside cover, slight groove on front cover and top corner mildly dented. Heavy book, additional postage may apply.

1st. Hard. Fine. 10 7 1.5. There is a catastrophic worldwide decline of anguillid (freshwater eel) species. World authorities on the three species consider mechanisms for addressing this concern and reversing trends. This book emphasizes recent and new insights into basic biology, resource status, and management procedures. Chapter authors provide innovative approaches to stock assessment and management. Published by the American Fisheries Society, 2009. Clean, crisp copy. Fine except for initials inside on title page.
