Sea Anemones and Corals of Britain and Ireland
Author: Chris Wood
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 0957394632
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 161
Book Description
The cool temperate waters around Britain and Ireland contain a huge variety of marine life and the sea anemones and corals, the Anthozoa, are some of the brightest and most attractive of all the groups of animals that live in them. Anemones and corals can be found from rockpools to the deepest depths and in all habitats from rocky reefs to soft mud. This is the second edition of this popular guide to all 74 of the sea anemones and corals found in British and Irish inshore waters. It will be an essential companion for divers, rockpoolers and students who want to identify the sea anemones and corals they find and know more about them. Information on identification of 74 species, including their key features and other species with which they could be confused Illustrated with over 200 photographs taken in situ showing the animals as they look in real life Habitat, distribution, depth, size, rarity and conservation status for each species where known Information and photographs of other animals that prey on or live with sea anemones and corals Details of body structure, feeding and reproduction, illustrated with photographs and drawings Information about recent research on populations of sea anemones and corals carried out by Seasearch volunteer divers A summary of conservation issues for sea anemones and corals in Britain and Ireland

A Functional Biology of Sea Anemones
Author: J. Malcolm Shick
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401130809
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 416
Book Description
General Editor: Peter Calow, Department of Zoology, University of Sheffield, England The main aim of this series will be to illustrate and to explain the way organisms 'make a living' in nature. At the heart of this - their Junctional biology - is the way organisms acquire and then make use of resources in metabolism, movement, growth, reproduction, and so on. These processes will form the fundamental framework of all the books in the series. Each book will concentrate on a particular taxon (species, family, class or even phylum) and will bring together information on the form, physiology, ecology and evolutionary biology of the group. The aim will be not only to describe how organisms work, but also to consider why they have come to work in that way. By concentrating on taxa which are well known, it is hoped that the series will not only illustrate the success of selection, but also show the constraints imposed upon it by the physiological, morphological and developmental limitations of the groups. Another important feature of the series will be its organismic orientation. Each book will emphasize the importance of functional integration in the day-to-day lives and the evolution of organisms. This is crucial since, though it may be true that organisms can be considered as collections of gene determined traits, they nevertheless interact with their environment as integrated wholes and it is in this context that individual traits have been subjected to natural selection and have evolved.
