Reviews

"The treatment of crustacean larval biology is thorough, covering the appropriate terrain of developmental modes, effects of environmental conditions on growth and development, behavior, and important events in the lives of larvae, such as hatching and metamorphosis." -- Renae Brodie, Mount Holyoke College, The Quarterly Review of Biology
