Crustaceans; Aquaculture & fish-farming: practice & techniques; Sea life & the seashore

Fishermen, marine aquarists, biologists studying seashore and

coastal waters, and those involved in trading shellfish and even

restaurateurs are aware of the great diversity of crustaceans

inhabiting the seas around the British Isles, Northern Europe and the

Mediterranean.

Crayfishes, Lobsters and Crabs of Europe will

enable

the reader to identify 42 crustacean species of commercial

importance

found in these regions during coastal explorations,

fishing trips,

displayed in public aquaria or available in

restaurants, including

selected freshwater crayfishes, deep-sea

species and some imported

species.

The book also includes sections on the gross internal and external

structure of these Crustacea, their life histories,

classification

and nomenclature. The book is of interest to students of marine

biology and researchers in fisheries science.
