Asian Horseshoe Crabs: Biology, Ecology, Conservation, and Utilization provides the most updated and comprehensive knowledge on this mysterious family of crustaceans, which are often described as "living fossils.? As overfishing and environmental stressors have caused these species to become endangered, this is a timely and necessary book to ensure the protection of horseshoe crabs from extinction.
