Description: "Chemical Ecology of Vertebrates is the first book to focus exclusively on the chemically mediated interactions between vertebrates, including fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals, and other animals, and plants. While the main focus is ecological, dealing with behavior and interactions in the field, it also covers chemoreception, orientation and navigation, the development of behavior, and the practical applications of chemosignals."--BOOK JACKET.
