The book provides diversified information regarding diversity of spider fauna, aquatic hemipterans, soil micro-arthropods, polychaetes, prawns and also the fish fauna on one hand besides focusing on molecular markers for the analysis of genetic biodiversity with special reference to Indian fish fauna. Chapters on pollinator biodiversity and their conservation, conservation status of flying mammals, gaur, adjutant storks, saltwater crocodiles and the conservation issues of elephants in ancient India will attract attention of the readers. Avifaunal status of wildlife reservoir in Nepal, aquatic avifauna of Aravali hills and the faunal diversity in the Rasik Beel Wetland Complex are the other notable contributions.
