The captivating field of Identification and Ecology of Freshwater Arthropods in the Mediterranean Basin delves into the vast expanse of the Mediterranean region, encompassing portions of Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Mediterranean islands. However, it excludes other biogeographic locations with Mediterranean climates situated outside this region. This comprehensive book offers an in-depth exploration of the taxonomy and ecology of aquatic arthropods, encompassing lentic and lotic habitats, as well as less explored underground and estuarine environments. It provides expanded taxonomic identification keys for major groups of arthropods, accompanied by detailed descriptions of their ecology and distribution. These keys specifically cater to insects, encompassing aquatic larval stages and water-dwelling adults from the Coleoptera and Heteroptera families. Furthermore, the book delves into taxa that can be encountered in adjacent brackish and estuary ecosystems, as long as they primarily thrive in freshwater habitats. This resource is of utmost importance, as it fills a significant gap in our understanding of the taxonomy and ecology of freshwater arthropods. Moreover, it includes an introduction to recent molecular tools for identification, making it an invaluable tool for freshwater ecologists, limnologists, environmentalists, and students in the ecological sciences.
