As far as we know, there is a lack of books about parasites of marine crustaceans not targeted to fisheries and aquaculture. Thus, this would be the most complete and integrative monograph of parasites of marine zooplankton and micro nektonic organisms worldwide. Krill form immense aggregations and serve as food for multiple planktonic and nektonic predators playing a crucial role in pelagic food web. Besides, several species are also used for human consumption. For these reasons there is a growing concern about the health issues that krill parasites may impose on other species, including us. This book provides a comprehensive review of parasites of a crustacean order that can extrapolate to potential parasites in other crustacean taxa worldwide. . 606 $aAquatic ecology  606 $aParasitology 606 $aEvolutionary biology 606 $aAnimal systematics 606 $aAnimal taxonomy 606 $aFreshwater & Marine Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19066 606 $aParasitology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B19002 606 $aEvolutionary Biology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L21001 606 $aAnimal Systematics/Taxonomy/Biogeography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L2504X 615 0$aAquatic ecology . 615 0$aParasitology. 615 0$aEvolutionary biology. 615 0$aAnimal systematics. 615 0$aAnimal taxonomy. 615 14$aFreshwater & Marine Ecology. 615 24$aParasitology. 615 24$aEvolutionary Biology. 615 24$aAnimal Systematics/Taxonomy/Biogeography. 676 $a577.6 676 $a577.7 700 $aGómez-Gutiérrez$b Jaime$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0892720 702 $aKawaguchi$b So$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aMorales-Ávila$b José Raúl$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910253931503321 996 $aGlobal Diversity and Ecological Function of Parasites of Euphausiids$91993972 997 $aUNINA
