Analyzing parasite-host specificity, geographic distribution, and taxonomy can provide otherwise cryptic details about crocodilian ecology and evolution, as well as their local food web dynamics. This information is critical for improved conservation tactics for both crocodilians and their habitat. As climate change, anthropogenic conflict, and environmental pollution endanger crocodilian ecosystems, there is a need for organized information on crocodile, alligator, caiman, and gharial infectious diseases. This volume meets this need by delivering the first checklist of crocodilians and their parasites for researchers and scholars in biology, herpetology, and ecology in order to further the knowledge and study of crocodilian-parasite dynamics and improve our understanding of human impacts on ecosystems. 410 0$aUniversity of California publications in zoology ;$vv. 136. 606 $aCrocodilians 606 $aHost-parasite relationships 610 $aalligators. 610 $aanthropogenic conflict. 610 $abiology. 610 $acaimans. 610 $aclimate change. 610 $aconservation. 610 $acrocodiles. 610 $acrocodilia. 610 $acrocodilian evolution. 610 $acrocodilians. 610 $acrocodylia. 610 $aecology. 610 $aecosystems. 610 $aenvironment. 610 $aenvironmental pollution. 610 $aevolutionary ecology. 610 $afalse gharial. 610 $agharial. 610 $aherpetology. 610 $ahost. 610 $ahuman impact. 610 $ainfectious diseases. 610 $alocal food web dynamics. 610 $anatural habitat. 610 $aparasite host relationship. 610 $aparasite host specificity. 610 $aparasite. 610 $aparasitism. 610 $apredators. 610 $ascientists. 610 $asemiaquatic reptiles. 610 $asymbiotic relationship. 610 $ataxonomy. 610 $atheoretical. 615 0$aCrocodilians. 615 0$aHost-parasite relationships. 676 $a597.9817857 700 $aTellez$b Christina Marisa$01711426 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910819457303321 996 $aA checklist of host-parasite interactions of the order crocodylia$94102715 997 $aUNINA
