This collection originates from the Eighth International Workshop on the subject held in Hong Kong in April 1995. The 31 papers deal with aspects of the taxonomy and ecology of Hong Kong's marine life with particular reference to the Cape d'Aguilar Marine Reserve and the benthic fauna of its territorial waters.

Cet ouvrage est à la fois une histoire maritime et une histoire des sociétés littorales au XVIIIe siècle. Il aborde le développement du commerce avec les navires marchands et toute l'activité qui progresse avec lui dans les ports, les trajectoires portuaires, les échanges, mais aussi la vie des marins, les rivalités commerciales, la flotte de guerre. De nombreux tableaux statistiques et 45 illustrations évoquent le commerce, les navires ... Les pêches, de la cueillette à la grande pêche. L'Atlantique ibero-américain. L'Atlantique antillais et nord-américain. Les compagnies, les Indes et la Chine. Le développement des échanges par cabotage sur la façade atlantique. L'Europe et le "Sea Power".

The biodiversity of many ecosystems is under threat and although seas cover the majority of our planet's surface, far less is known about the biodiversity of marine environments than that of terrestrial systems. It is also not clear whether many of the patterns known to occur on land also occur in the sea. Until we have a firmer idea of the diversity of a wide range of marine habitats and what controls it, we have little hope of conserving biodiversity, or determining the impact of human activities such as mariculture, fishing, dumping of waste and pollution. This book brings together key studies from the deep sea and open ocean, to tropical shores and polar regions to consider how comparable the patterns and processes underlying diversity are in these different ecosystems. Marine Biodiversity will be a major resource for all those interested in biodiversity and its conservation.

Vertebrate evolution has led to the convergent appearance of many groups of originally terrestrial animals that now live in the sea. Among these groups are familiar mammals like whales, dolphins, and seals. There are also reptilian lineages (like plesiosaurs, ichthyosaurs, mosasaurs, thalattosaurs, and others) that have become sea creatures. Most of these marine reptiles, often wrongly called ""dinosaurs"", are extinct. This edited book is devoted to these extinct groups of marine reptiles. These reptilian analogs represent useful models of the myriad adaptations that permit tetrapods to live
