This book, the second in the series on the avifauna of Indonesia, introduces the reader to the most typical and colourful birds of the large islands of Sumatra and Kalimantan, whose dipterocarp forests of the lowlands and wetland forest of the coastal plains are particularly rich habitats. The main descriptions covering 148 species from nearly every bird family on the two islands, provide information on the plumage, behaviour, habitat, and distribution to enable the general naturalist to identify most of the birds found readily in the different habitats of the islands. Reference is also made in the text to a further 129 species to illustrate the range and variety of birds in each family. It is hoped that this book will encourage a greater interest in birds in particular, and wildlife in general, and foster an increased awareness of the need to protect an adequate area of some of the richest habitats in the world while there is still time.

About the book >.>.> ANYONE who has an interest in the birds of the Indonesian forests encounters a problem. The variety of birds is very wide, but the field guides or handbooks available are usually comprehensive and con-fusing or daunting to the layman. The problem is compounded for the overseas visitor who is not yet familiar with the bird families, which is the first step in identification. The author has long felt the need for popular bird books in Indonesia, such as those in his home country which first inspired his own enthusiasm in his youth. The present book attempts to fulfil this need, by providing a simple introduction to the full range of birds found in Sumatra and Kalimantan. One or more representative species are described from nearly every bird family found on the two islands. The species have been selected carefully so that the birds described are those which a layman is most likely to find, or to be able to identify, on visits to the different habitats. The main descriptions cover 148 species, of which 133 are illustr. Artikel-Nr. Batch-FM625-VG-13019
