Freshwater Crustacea

  • Chapter
Biogeography and Ecology in Tasmania

Part of the book series: Monographiae Biologicae ((MOBI,volume 25))

Abstract

It will be some considerable time before a review even approaching a definitive one of the ecology and biogeography of the Crustacea of Tasmanian inland waters can be produced: it is evident that much remains to be discovered and refined within the taxonomic sphere, that aside from a few exceptions precise ecological information for most species is still lacking, and that many questions of a zoogeographical nature remain unanswered or, indeed, have scarcely been posed. Nevertheless, enough time and material have accumulated since the last review of this sort was attempted (Smith, 1909a) to make the present chapter a reasonably apposite endeavour. In any event, within the context of this book, omission of such a review would be a major omission, for the Crustacea of Tasmanian inland waters include several forms of significant zoological and biogeographical interest. It may be emphasised that the general arguments of Guiler (1965) concerning the lack of endemicity in the Tasmanian fauna and of Darlington (1960) concerning its low diversity certainly do not apply to the freshwater Crustacea. Guiler’s argument has been rebutted in detail elsewhere (Bayly & Williams, 1965), but in summary the Tasmanian freshwater Crustacea is noted for its high diversity and endemicity vis-a-vis both the Australian mainland fauna and that elsewhere.
