Inhoud:

Ecophysiology of Desert Arthropods and Reptiles starts with a new classification of the world's deserts, based upon the type of precipitation and the effect on their faunas of arthropods and reptiles. Seasonal activity and phenology are described, adaptations for burrowing, the avoidance of enemies, and defence, are also outlined.
