This book uses a wide range of case studies from different invertebrate taxa to describe the numerous forms of social recognition occurring in this large group of animals and traces the evolution of this cognitive ability. The authors provide several examples of direct (i.e. the target of recognition is a conspecific) and indirect recognition (i.e. recognition of a reliable proxy rather than an individual, such as a den or a substrate) and discuss cases of familiar recognition (i.e. an animal remembers a conspecific but cannot tell what class it comes from or recognize its identity)....

This book examines direct effects to human health from invasive species such as bites, wounds and illness and indirect effects via changes induced in the ecosystems. It covers case studies from different taxa (animals and plants) and in developed and developing countries.
