Atlas of Marine Zooplankton (Straits of Magellan) : Copepods

This reference work is a contribution to the study of the faunal assemblages of the area where the waters of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans mix.

It is designed to allow a rapid identification of the 45 species described, 18 of which are new to the region.

This volume deals with the copepods, their taxonomy, spatial distribution and abundances.

It also provides background data on their physical and biological environment.

Emphasis is given to illustrations - most of them high-quality scanning electron micrographs plus drawings - accompanied by brief taxonomic descriptions.
