The main  scientific domains contributing theories, concepts, and data to  evolutionary biology are morphology (including ontogeny),  palaeontology, genetics, and ecology, and to all of these aspects  ostracods can contribute. This is clearly illustrated by the fifteen  papers presented under Theme 3 of the 13th International Symposium on  Ostracoda (Chatham, UK) in 1997 which are grouped in the present  proceedings, one of three volumes resulting from this meeting. The  contributions deal with the evolution of both extant and fossil forms  (including most of the Phanaerozoic), ecology of both marine and  freshwater taxa, and (developmental) morphology of both soft parts and  valves. Although the canvas is wide, each paper clearly shows how  studies on Ostracoda can be relevant to general theory on evolutionary  biology and ecology.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2000-05-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e ISBN-10: 9780792363965\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792363965\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-017-1508-9\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 276cm x203cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 197\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44359051706508,"sku":"9780792363965","price":153.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792363965.jpg?v=1755100499","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792363965","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
