Synopses & Reviews
This volume is the proceedings of the IX International Conference on Ephemeroptera and the XII International Symposium on Plecoptera, held in Tucuman, Argentina. Divided into comprehensive thematic sections, the early sections cover studies on ecology and behavior ranging from life cycles and general biology to genetic divergence and vibrational communication, while the latter sections reveal the diversified studies being developed worldwide. This book will be useful for beginners and specialists, providing important data for ecological, distributional, morphological, and biogeographical studies.
