"An indispensable reference for every course on marine biology that is given in this part of the world." -- Jan Reid, Monoculus
"This well-edited primer offers a concise and convenient compendium." -- Marsh Youngbluth, Limnology and Oceanography Bulletin
"Johnson and Allen provide a much needed reference for students and biologists who need to learn zooplankton taxa. The descriptions and drawings are excellent: readers identifying organisms can immediately locate distinguishing characteristics and learn about geographic distributions. This is exactly what is needed for students of marine biology, marine ecology, estuarine ecology, invertebrate zoology, and biological oceanography." -- Julie Ambler, Millersville University
"An extremely useful guide... An indispensable book for teachers, students, and professionals working in marine biology and oceanography." -- Northeastern Naturalist
William S. Johnson and Dennis M. Allen provide a complete guide to estuarine and coastal zooplankton in North America and the first comprehensive guide to the zooplankton of the Atlantic and Gulf coasts. The scholarly treatment presents technical information in a user-friendly format that facilitates rapid and positive identification. Coverage includes most common zooplankton (and many phytoplankton) of this region. The authors provide detailed instructions for identifying taxa as well as the ecological information to place them in context. The introductory chapters on zooplankton biology and on coastal habitats permit the book's use as both a guide to identification and as a text or supplemental text in marine biology courses.
Key Features· High-quality line drawings that indicate the distinguishing features of most taxa· Use of coloration or movement to help identify living specimens· Information on biology, distribution, and ecology with each identification· Extensive references and suggested readings· Instructions for easy and inexpensive ways to collect and observe zooplankton
Designed specifically for classroom and laboratory use, this book is indispensable for teachers and students of Atlantic and Gulf Coast marine biology. It should also prove useful to professional biologists and amateur naturalists with an interest in zooplankton.
