Also, because the adults are so well known in this country, this book will provide completion to our understanding of the life cycle of an entire fauna. Through the six chapters of this book, the reader will find an introduction with generalities of the order Odonata, a description of the morphology of a dragonfly larva with emphasis in the structures used in the keys, a brief description of Thailand’s geography, relief, hydrology, climate, precipitation, agriculture, history, and faunal studies, and detailed descriptions of each of the 82 genera of Anisoptera of Thailand whose larvae are known. This book will have broad appeal in the large community of odonatists around the world and for the aquatic entomologists, ecologists, and conservationists interested in the Southeast Asian fauna in general.InvertebratesBiodiversityAnatomy, ComparativeConservation biologyEcologyInvertebrate ZoologyBiodiversityAnimal AnatomyConservation BiologyEcologyInvertebrates.Biodiversity.Anatomy, Comparative.Conservation biology.Ecology.Invertebrate Zoology.Biodiversity.Animal Anatomy.Conservation Biology.Ecology.595.733Novelo-Gutiérrez Rodolfo1749371Sites Robert W.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910874663903321The Dragonfly Nymphs of Thailand (Odonata: Anisoptera)4234484UNINA
