This is the first book to provide a detailed treatment of the field of larval ecology. The 13 chapters use state-of-the-art reviews and critiques of nearly all of the major topics in this diverse and rapidly growing field. Topics include:

patterns of larval diversity

reproductive energetics

spawning ecology

life history theory

larval feeding and nutrition

larval mortality

behavior and locomotion

larval transport

dispersal

population genetics

recruitment dynamics

larval evolution
Written by the leading new scientists in the field, chapters define the current state of larval ecology and outline the important questions for future research.
