Invertebrate Surveys for Conservation

Most animals are invertebrates, yet conservation managers and practitioners know very little about their biology, or how to study and survey them adequately in the field. This text is a comprehensive guide to the ecological methods used to survey invertebrate animals in terrestrial, freshwater, and marine environments. Containing practical advice and discussion on optimal sampling methods, and on how to interpret samples effectively for practical conservation assessment, this text should be a valuable tool for anyone involved in conservation biology or ecology.
