| Abstract | "Crustaceans are quite a biodiverse group of organisms but their evolution is based on a bunch of common characters that determined their evolutionary and ecological success. It also determines their possible biotechnological applications. Here a group of global experts on crustaceans report new discoveries in various fields, including conservation, fishery, aquaculture and ecology"-- Provided by publisher. |
