The three volumes of Gurney's "Copepoda" were published by the Ray Society in 1931, 1932 and 1933 respectively. Vol. I covers the Calanoida, Vol. II the Harpacticoida, and Vol III the Cyclopoda & Caligoida. The greater part of Vol. I deals with habitat, life cycle and distribution, then the remainder of the 3 volumes cover the taxonomy and individual species in great detail, with over 2,000 illustrations. Like many other Ray Society monographs, "British Fresh-water Copepoda" remains one of the most important works on its subject, many years after its publication.
Out of print and very scarce for many years, 'British Freshwater Copepoda' is available on CD-ROM, for Windows PCs and Macs. The plates, figures and text are reproduced exactly from the original, with the added bonus of being fully cross-referenced and searchable for ease of navigation.
Format: E-book on CD-ROM. This volume is also available as a download.
