Sexual Segregation in Vertebrates: Ecology of the Two Sexes
Edited by Kathreen Ruckstuhl and Peter Neuhaus
Cambridge University Press, January 2006 | 500 pages | 247 x 174 mm

Overview: An understanding of sexual segregation is important in the explanation of life history and social preference, population dynamics and the conservation of rare species. This book explores the reasons why this behaviour has evolved and what factors contribute to it. Chapters provide a synthesis on many different vertebrate groups. This is the first synthesis, to our knowledge, on sexual segregation. Highlights important implications for conservation.
