CSIRO Handbook of Australian Vertebrates: With Conservation Status (CSIRO National Wildlife Collection) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

After 200 years of settlement, the taxonomy of Australia's biota is incomplete. Even in the better-known vertebrates, new species are still being discovered, particularly in reptiles and bats, and in birds over 50 distinct regional subspecies have yet to be described. This title seeks to address these shortcomings by providing a definitive and current list of names of Australian vertebrates. Additional features include specification of legislated protection for threatened species for all states and territories - including listings in the Action Plans of Environment Australia and the IUCN Red List of Threatened Animals, and cross-referencing to ABRS Census of Australian Vertebrate Species list.
