Concluding remarks about freshwater decapod conservation. 330 $aThis book introduces updated information on conservation issues, providing an overview of what is needed to advance the global conservation of freshwater decapods such as freshwater crabs, crayfish, and shrimps. Biodiversity loss in general is highest in organisms that depend on intact freshwater habitats, because freshwater ecosystems worldwide are suffering intense threats from multiple sources. Our understanding of the number and location of threatened species of decapods, and of the nature of their extinction threats has improved greatly in recent years, and has enabled the development of species conservation strategies. This volume focuses on saving threatened species from extinction, and emphasizes the importance of the successful implementation of conservation action plans through cooperation between scientists, conservationists, educators, funding agencies, policy makers, and conservation agencies. 606 $aBiodiversity 606 $aAquatic ecology  606 $aConservation biology 606 $aEcology  606 $aInvertebrates 606 $aEvolutionary biology 606 $aNature conservation 606 $aBiodiversity$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19031 606 $aFreshwater & Marine Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19066 606 $aConservation Biology/Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19150 606 $aInvertebrates$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L25058 606 $aEvolutionary Biology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L21001 606 $aNature Conservation$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U26008 615 0$aBiodiversity. 615 0$aAquatic ecology . 615 0$aConservation biology. 615 0$aEcology . 615 0$aInvertebrates. 615 0$aEvolutionary biology. 615 0$aNature conservation. 615 14$aBiodiversity. 615 24$aFreshwater & Marine Ecology. 615 24$aConservation Biology/Ecology. 615 24$aInvertebrates. 615 24$aEvolutionary Biology. 615 24$aNature Conservation. 676 $a577 702 $aKawai$b Tadashi$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aCumberlidge$b Neil$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910148856203321 996 $aA Global Overview of the Conservation of Freshwater Decapod Crustaceans$92516507 997 $aUNINA
