Klappentext When Peter Hayward and John S. Ryland first published Marine Fauna of the British Isles and North-West Europe, it became an instant classic in the marine reference literature. Now with Handbook of the Marine Fauna of North-West Europe, the same editors offer a concise, practical guide to over 1,500 species from the major marine phyla--from sponges to fish--in a format that is ideal for field use. With its simple dichotomous keys, individual descriptions, profusion of illustrations, and extensive reference section, the book allows for rapid and easy identification of all but the rarest marine animals found on the sea shores and shallow sublittoral zones of the region. Students, researchers, and amateurs interested in zoology, marine biology, and ecology will all want to own a copy of this unique field guide.

Nun herrschteStille in dem Bau, der würfelartig mit unzählbaren kleinenFenstern aussah wie ein Industriedenkmal aus der Gründerzeit.Zwei einhundertvierzig Meter hohe Schlote hatten jahraus, jahrein,dunklen Rauch über das Saartal geworfen. Die Bürgerder deutschen Gemeinde Kleinblittersdorf auf der anderen Saarseitewaren ebenso lange gegen die »Dreckschleuder« Sturmgelaufen. Inhaltsverzeichnis Chapter 1. Introduction; Chapter 2.
