IAA News
Freshwater Crayfish volume 1
For years now the first volume of Freshwater Crayfish has been out of print. As a result, it has been difficult or impossible for new members to gain access to the articles contained in this volume. Therefore, the IAA would like to announce that the first volume of Freshwater Crayfish is now available in electronic (Adobe PDF) format to the IAA membership for $10 US and to non-members for $15 US.
Exciting features of this electronic document are that the text is completely searchable and now also contains a subject index.
Please contact IAA Webmaster
for more information on obtaining this volume on CD.
Please note that Freshwater Crayfish volumes 2 thru 12 will also be made available in electronic format over the next few years. Check back here for updates on this project over the coming months.
