Overview

About this series, Crustaceana Monographs has been established as a series of books on carcinology in the widest sense to accommodate papers exceeding the page limit of the journal Crustaceana. Good quality contributions arc sought that will preferably fill between 300 and 500 pages, but at least 100 pages and up to 600 pages in print. It is the aim of the Publisher to publish two or three volumes per year. In all its aspects, i.e., format, editorial instructions, etc., this series is indeed intended to represent a series of books truly "attached" to Crustaceana - International Journal of Crustacean Research. About this volume, The Festschrift Eugen Karl Kempf is a proceedings volume of the 15th International German Ostracodologists' Meeting which was held 11-14 October 2012 at the Institute of Geology and Mineralogy of the University of Cologne. The selected contributions cover a broad range of biological and palaeonlological topics that rely on sound taxonomy and serve as a tribute to the Kempf Database of Ostracoda including a biography on Eugen Karl Kempf. In detail, the contributions are covering freshwater and marine genera/species and the parasitic family Entocytherids. Revisions of genera and descriptions of new species are one focus, but also new studies on biogeography, ecology and morphology.
