A thorough review of the evolution and biogeography of crustaceans to determine how crustaceans have been able to evolve in a number of climates and habitats; this volume also examines the ecological and biogeographical implications of that evolutionary process.
This is the eighth volume of a ten-volume series on The Natural History of the Crustacea. The volume examines Evolution and Biogeography, and the first part of this volume is entirely dedicated to the explanation of the origins and successful establishment of the Crustacea in the oceans. In the second part of the book, the biogeography of the Crustacea is explored in order to infer how they conquered different biomes globally while adapting to a wide range of aquatic and terrestrial conditions. The final section examines more general patterns and processes, and the chapters offer useful insight into the future of crustaceans.

Martin Thiel is Professor of Marine Biology at Universidad Católica del Norte in Coquimbo, Chile. Gary Poore is Curator Emeritus of Marine Biology at Museum Victoria in Melbourne, Australia.
