Abstract

One of the American pioneers in ecology once said that the life-history of the individual species will always remain the basis of animal ecology. This statement is no doubt true. The question, however, as to what should be understood by life-history has recently undergone many changes. It is not any longer restricted to the description of stages and of parasites and predators. The abundance of recent methodological achievements is large. Only a few of the more important implications will here be discussed.
