Inhaltsangabe
This new field guide describes each of the 640 species of birds known to occur or to have occurred in West Malaysia and in Singapore. The main author is based in Malaysia, and he and the artist have extensive first-hand field experience of the birds of the region. Every species, including major plumage variations, is illustrated in 72 stunning full-colour plates, especially painted for this volume. The comprehensive text includes data on calls and song, range, distribution, habitat, status, and behaviour. Introductory chapters provide useful and interesting information on migration, breeding, and conservation. A section on birdwatching in the region includes information on key birdwatching sites, and what to look for there. Easy to use for beginners, and comprehensive enough to satisfy experienced birdwatchers, this is by far the most up-to-date and authoritative guide to the exciting and abundant avifauna of this increasingly popular holiday region.

About the book >.>.> WEST Malaysia and Singapore are geographically part of the Malay Peninsula, which extends from the Isthmus of Kra in southern Thailand and terminates in the island of Singapore. This includes all adjacent islands in the Straits of Melaka and the South China Sea (see Maps 1 and 2). The Malay Peninsula has a fairly rich avifauna with a total of 665 naturally occurring species, distributed in the various habitat types. At the turn of the century, almost the whole region was covered with equatorial rainforest while mangrove forest thrived along the west coast and sheltered estuaries on the east coast. Today, the region has lost about 60 per cent of its forest cover to agriculture, the timber industry, and urbanization. What remains today is largely fragmented; the only exceptions are the 4343 km? Taman Negara (West Malaysia's first and largest National Park) and the montane forests of the Titiwangsa Range. In Singapore itself, less than 3 per cent of the total land area is forest covered. This reduction in natural veget. Artikel-Nr. Batch-FM624-G-13016
