Preface
Increasing and universal environmental pollution stimulated numerous recent investigations in the pathological physiology of the Cladocera that brought forth abundant information discussed in the present edition. In addition, studies in normal physiology progressed in various ways.
The structure of the previous edition is only slightly changed. However, new sections are added and numerous new findings are introduced throughout the text. As well, misprints and errors are corrected. The present edition is supplemented mainly with data from sources for recent years.
Reviewing the results of the worldwide investigations one may note that they remain mostly confined to daphnids which live in open water, especially to Daphnia , whereas representatives of other families coping with different life conditions are still awaiting investigation. The vast and specific world of littoral and bottom-living Cladocera is still waiting for due physiological assessment. Some data available for such species are discussed as well. Transformations of functions and the related structures in different families would be highly instructive and revealing. Probably, the present review will indicate what and how should further be studied in these animals which live very differently from pelagic species. Especially demonstrative would be, e.g., data on transformations of the system of muscles and of the involved skeletal structures performing different kinds of locomotion in representatives of various genera.
Another special point of studies in Cladocera physiology is that they are still fragmentary: some issues are now clarified and some are almost unknown.
Over 700 species of Cladocera (Crustacea: Branchiopoda) are known and representatives of this group are often dominant in the freshwater fauna, sometimes occurring in enormous quantities. They live in both small and large water bodies from arctic to tropical latitudes, in open water, on the bottom, in mud, among inshore vegetation, in acid pools on bogs, in small accumulations of water in epiphytic plants, in narrow aquatic spaces between moist sand grains. A few species even left the water and live in moist moss-like growth on tree trunks in tropical cloud forests. Some species are specialized for life in saline lakes and in the sea.
Cladocerans, especially Daphnia species, belong to the commonest animals in hydrobiology. They are counted, measured, weighed, cultured, their species lists are composed, distribution in space and time described. Their role is recognized as the food resource of fish and as water quality indicators. Species of Cladocera are described and redescribed nowadays in excellent morphological detail.
