Ecology of Predator-Prey InteractionsPedro Barbosa, Ignacio Castellanos Oxford University Press, USA, 11 de ago. de 2005 - 394 páginas This book addresses the fundamental issues of predator-prey interactions, with an emphasis on predation among arthropods, which have been better studied, and for which the database is more extensive than for the large and rare vertebrate predators. The book should appeal to ecologists interested in the broad issue of predation effects on communities. |
