Fifty years after the ‘‘Homage to Santa Rosalia’’: Old and new paradigms on biodiversity in aquatic ecosystems
This book celebrates the fiftieth anniversary of publication of one of the landmarks of the modern ecological thought: the “Homage to Santa Rosalia or why are there so many kinds of animals” by George Evelyn Hutchinson. Published in 1959 in the journal “The American Naturalist”, this article has bee...

Πίνακας περιεχομένων:
- Foreword
- The influence of “Homage to Santa Rosalia” on aquatic ecology: a scientometric approach
- Linking traits to species diversity and community structure in phytoplankton
- Drivers of phytoplankton diversity in Lake Tanganyika
- Rarity, ecological memory, rate of floral change in phytoplankton—and the mystery of the Red Cock
- Diversity and community biomass depend on dispersal and disturbance in microalgal communities
- Influence of nutrients, submerged macrophytes and zooplankton grazing on phytoplankton biomass and diversity along a latitudinal gradient in Europe
- Why are there so many kinds of planktonic consumers? The answer lies in the allometric diet breadth
- Absence of predation eliminates coexistence: experience from the fish–zooplankton interface
- On non-Eltonian methods of hunting Cladocera, or impacts of the introduction of planktivorous fish on zooplankton composition and clear-water phase occurrence in a Mediterranean reservoir
- Out of Alaska: morphological diversity within the genus Eurytemora from its ancestral Alaskan range (Crustacea, Copepoda)
- Does lake age affect zooplankton diversity in Mediterranean lakes and reservoirs? A case study from southern Italy
- Homage to Hutchinson: does inter-annual climate variability affect zooplankton density and diversity?
- Homage to the Virgin of Ecology, or why an aquatic insect unadapted to desiccation may maintain populations in very small, temporary Mediterranean streams
- Winning the biodiversity arms race among freshwater gastropods: competition and coexistence through shell variability and predator avoidance
- Stygobiotic crustacean species richness: a question of numbers, a matter of scale
- Santa Rosalia, the icon of biodiversity.
