Reviews
"IAN'S RECOMMENDATION: For anyone interested in the freshwater animals of North America."---The Guardian's Punctuated Equilibrium "The strength of this text lies in the narratives describing the form, function, ecology, and collection methods associated with each major group. Consequently, the book is more of a primer or an introduction to freshwater invertebrates, than a field guide. Summing Up: Recommended. Lower-division undergraduates and general readers."-- Choice, September 2011, Vol. 49, No. 01, "IAN'S RECOMMENDATION: For anyone interested in the freshwater animals of North America."---The Guardian's Punctuated Equilibrium
