Dedication
This volume is dedicated to the memory of Neil Argo Croll (1941–1981), Professor
of Parasitology at McGill University and Director of McGill International, whose
untimely death prevented his witnessing the profound influence his work would
have on the discipline of nematology. His legacy includes 90 research papers and
seven books, including Ecology of
Parasites, which was written even
before completing his PhD in
1966, and the seminal Behaviour
of Nematodes. In addition to the
PhD, he was awarded the Doctor
of Medicine degree and the presti-
gious Doctor of Science degree
from London University. He was
particularly passionate about nem-
atode behaviour and crossed over
traditional boundaries to work
with animal- and plant-parasitic as
well as free-living marine and
freshwater species. It is remarkable
that one man could accomplish so
much in the mere 39 years allot-
ted, and we can only wonder as to
‘what might have been’ given a full
lifespan.
