Hi! Apurba I currently used " Spatial Analysis: A Guide for Ecologists (Fortin & Dale 20002)" as my guide book , which may be more in to spatial statistics field. It does provide some great ideas for how to analyze ecological data. I am also reading a book called "Ecological data: Design, Management and Processing (Eds: Michener & Brung)". Some chapters provide the basic principles for conducting statistical analysis in ecological research. Hope my information is useful for your needs. :)
