Biodiversità e bellezza_1.pdf - Anisn

Ecology is a new name for a very old subject. It simply means
scientific natural history . To a great many zoologists the word
“natural history” brings up a rather clear vision of parties of
naturalists going forth on excursion, prepared to swoop down on
any rarity which will serve to swell the local list of species. It is a
fact that natural history has fallen into disrepute among
zoologists, at any rate in England, and since it is a very serious
matter that a third of the whole subject of zoology should be
neglected by scientists, we may ask for reasons.
Se Elton scrivesse oggi potrebbe
ripetere per biodiversità quanto
scrisse per Ecology?
