This book, dedicated to Professor Emeritus George Ball from the University of Alberta, Canada, presents a collection of 20 papers held at the XIII European Carabidologists Meeting in Blagoevgrad, Bulgaria (August, 2007). The meeting was participated by 90 specialists from 20 countries of Europe, Asia and America. Traditionally, the proceedings volumes of the European Carabidologists Meeting have become important milestones outlining the latest tendencies and achievements in carabidology.
The aim of the organisers was to invite specialists from different countries and scientific schools to attempt most complete representation of both traditional and innovative approaches and methods in studying ground beetles. The contributions are arranged in four sections: Taxonomy, Molecular Studies and Biogeography; Biology and Conservation; GLOBENET - Carabids in Urban Environments; Carabids and Habitats. The book will be of use to carabidologists, specialists in traditional and molecular systematics, general and applied ecology, conservation biology and bioindication, urban ecology and biogeography.
