This is the first volume of a two-part treatise which deals with the ecology of aquatic insects. Focusing on insect biology and habitats, the book discusses evolutionary adaptation, aquatic insect trophic requirements and environmental needs in terms of water level and temperature.

Begins with a brief overview of the insect orders with aquatic representatives. Continues with evolutionary considerations, habitat occurrences of aquatic insect communities and the relationship of these insects to environmental variables such as temperature, substrate, flow and water level, suspended sediment, light, oxygen and other chemical factors.
