Seis Anos De Encontros De Malacologia Do Paraná
Este livro evidencia os avanços do Grupo de Malacologia do Paraná ao longo dos últimos seis anos e relata os resultados do IV Encontro de Malacologia do Paraná organizado em 2019.
Tópicos em Malacologia Médica
Objetiva resgatar o valioso conhecimento produzido no campo específico da malacologia médica e conta com a contribuição de uma salutar diversidade de especialistas brasileiros que se encontram trabalhando em uma área de intersecção entre o que poderia se chamar de biologia pura e ecologia aplicada ao controle de planorbídeos. Indica caminhos atraentes para o desenvolvimento de pesquisas, principalmente na área básica: morfologia e sistemática, fisiologia, embriologia e relações molusco/parasita. Destina-se não somente aos estudiosos em moluscos; também àqueles interessados em parasitologia, ecologia de ambientes límnicos, ecologia e controle de vetores, técnicos e epidemiólogos envolvidos em programas de controle da esquistossomose.
Freshwater Animal Diversity Assessment
This book offers a comprehensive study of species- and genus-level diversity and chorology of the global freshwater fauna to date. It gives a state of the art assessment of the diversity and distribution of Metazoa in the continental waters of the world.
Freshwater Mollusks of the World
Vinarski, Amy R. Wethington, Thomas Wilke
Limnoperna Fortunei
This book summarizes all currently available information on the ecology, environmental impacts and control methods of the golden mussel in industrial plants. The golden mussel was introduced in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan, and South America between 1965 and 1990, swiftly spreading in freshwater waterbodies. In most areas invaded it has become the dominant macroinverebrate and a major fouling pest of industrial plants. Limnoperna fortunei attaches to any hard surface, as well as to some less firm substrates. The growth of Limnoperna populations in raw cooling water conduits became a common nuisance in many industrial and power plants that use raw river or lake water for their processes, both in South America and in Asia. This work is written by experts on the golden mussel from Asia, Europe, North America and South America, each chapter critically reviews previously available information, which is in sources of limited distribution, such as internal reports and theses, in various languages.

Medical and Applied Malacology Crossing Boundaries
This book provides an overview of the XI International Congress on Medical and Applied Malacology: â oeCrossing Boundaries: Integrative Approaches to Malacologyâ . The event was held at the State University of Rio de Janeiro between the 25th and 29th of September 2012. A number of the plenary lecturers from the conference were invited to contribute their papers to these proceedings, as were speakers whose papers were eligible for student awards. The volume contains articles on bioprospecting methods; medical malacology; aquaculture; biomonitoring; alien species; reproductive and developmental biology; interdisciplinary teaching and education; and trends in malacological research. The information contained here will convey to the general public the importance of mollusks to human and animal health, as well as their applications in various areas of knowledge.
The Evolution and Fossil Record of Parasitism
This two-volume edited book highlights and reviews the potential of the fossil record to calibrate the origin and evolution of parasitism, and the techniques to understand the development of parasite-host associations and their relationships with environmental and ecological changes. The book deploys a broad and comprehensive approach, aimed at understanding the origins and developments of various parasite groups, in order to provide a wider evolutionary picture of parasitism as part of biodiversity. This is in contrast to most contributions by parasitologists in the literature that focus on circular lines of evidence, such as extrapolating from current host associations or distributions, to...

MAN and SHELLS Molluscs in the History
Since the Paleolithic age to the present, molluscs - which include squids, octopuses and a variety of shellfish - have featured in different facets of our history. Yet much of this detail is either unknown or underappreciated. From the shapes and patterns in their shells, to their culinary, medicinal and scientific value and from their depictions in literature and religions, mulluscs in general, and shellfish in particular, have fascinated mankind for millennia. Man and Shells is a treatise on molluscs in our natural history. Readers will traverse through the journey by demonstrating how these organisms have accompanied humans in arts and culture, in ancient religions, the myths that surround them, their role in commerce as in dyeing and as currency as well as in aquaculture and fishing, and much more. Man and Shells helps us to appreciate these creatures that continue to have an important yet little known place in the cultural evolution of man through the ages.
