Describing Species: Practical Taxonomic Procedure for Biologists
ISBN: 9780231068246 / Angielski / Twarda / 512 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. New species are discovered every day--and cataloguing all of them has grown into a nearly insurmountable task worldwide. Now, this definitive reference manual acts as a style guide for writing and filing species descriptions. New collecting techniques and new technology have led to a dramatic increase in the number of species that are discovered. Explorations of unstudied regions and new habitats for almost any group of organisms can result in a large number of new species discoveries--and hence the need to be described. Yet there is no one source a student or researcher can readily consult...

"Cats is 'dogs, ' and rabbits is 'dogs, ' and so's parrots; but this ere 'tortis' is a insect," a porter explains to an astonished traveler in a nineteenth-century Punch cartoon.

This enormously entertaining book captures the fervor of the Victorian age for classifying and categorizing every new specimen, plant or animal, that British explorers and soldiers and sailors brought home.

The Eponym Dictionary of Amphibians
ISBN: 9781907807411 / Angielski / Twarda / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. New species of animal and plant are being discovered all the time.

Species names related to a person are eponyms . Many scientific names are allusive, esoteric and even humorous, so an eponym dictionary is a valuable resource for anyone, amateur or professional, who wants to decipher...
