These lakes situated in a fascinating scenery of the Carpathians Mountains are not only breathtakingly beautiful but also important for paleolimnological reconstructions of past nature processes. The guide brings identification keys for over 100 chironomid taxa from six subfamilies recorded in more than 70 lakes. The species, morphotypes and genera, documented with numerous photos, follow up-to-date taxonomy and they are preceded by a general introduction on the area of focus as well as the history of chironomid research in the Carpathians. Ecological knowledge and most plausible palaeoecological interpretations are summarized for every genus\/morphotype. The Subfossil Chironomidae of the Western and Eastern Carpathians is an essential handbook for chironomid fanatics, teachers and students of aquatic ecology and palaeoecology, but also for ecologists, and conservationists working in the Carpathians.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Bitus?k, T?mea Chamutiov?, Ladislav Hamerl?k\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004694668\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004694668\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/06\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 236\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Peter Bitus?k","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46670709457151,"sku":"9789004694668","price":163.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/subfossil-chironomidae-of-the-western-peter-bitusk-9789004694668","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
