About This Book

Der Band bietet eine knapp gefasste Einführung in die Tiergeographie, schildert Lebensgemeinschaften und erklärt, wie Meere, Flüsse, Wüsten, Gebirge, Klima, Boden- und Pflanzenverhältnisse sowie biologische Beziehungen die Verbreitung von Arten bestimmen. Besprochene Themen sind die Einführung fremder Arten durch den Menschen, Ausbreitungswege wie Vogelzug und Verschleppung, die speziellen Verhältnisse von Inseln, die Folgen vergangener Eiszeiten sowie Höhengürtel der Gebirge. Ergänzend werden Konkurrenz, Feinde, Anpassungsfähigkeit, Größenänderungen und faunistische Unterteilungen dargestellt, teils mit Karten und anschaulichen Beispielen zu den praktischen Konsequenzen von Verbreitung und Anpassung.
