Ontogeny, functional ecology, and evolution of bats

Description:

"Ontogeny, Functional Ecology, and Evolution of Bats is a unique reference work by bat biologists who emphasize the importance of understanding ontogeny in analyses of evolution and ecology. In addition, the developmental underpinnings of specialized morphology, physiology, and behavior are elucidated, and the strong influence of ecology on the ontological niche of juvenile bats is illustrated. This book is an essential reference, not only for bat biologists, but for anyone working in the fields of ecology, developmental biology, evolution, behavior and systematics."--Jacket.
