Flora and Fauna: Patterns, Processes, and Protection explores the intricate relationships between plants, animals, and ecosystems, while addressing the urgent need for conservation in a rapidly changing world. This volume brings together research contributions on soil and water quality, fish biology and culture, aquatic macrophytes, ichthyofaunal diversity, invasive species, and biodiversity conservation. It also highlights traditional ethnobotanical and ethnomedicinal knowledge, entomophagy, and the role of protected areas in sustaining natural resources. Spanning themes from ecological patterns to innovative aquaculture practices, and from local cultural traditions to global sustainability concerns, the book provides fresh insights into how humans and nature are interlinked. Designed for researchers, academicians, students, and practitioners, it offers both theoretical understanding and practical guidance for biodiversity protection and sustainable development.
