Inhaltsangabe
For the first time, the new edition of this popular book – the leading title on the market covering this subject – includes a comprehensive index, adding to its user-friendliness.
Few animals rival spiders in their diversity of forms and colour, ecological abundance and importance, and complexity of behaviours. They inspire awe among naturalists and at the same time are feared by many. Australia and its island territories harbour an estimated 8,500 species in 850 genera and 79 families; however, only about 3,500 species in about 650 genera are currently described.
‘A Guide to the Spiders of Australia’ is the first comprehensive guide to Australian spiders to cover all 79 families that occur in this country. Almost 400 colour photos of live spiders and about 50 images of their webs are complemented by 50 microscopic shots taken in the laboratory to illustrate the very smallest of spiders. A number of scientific drawings clarify particular features of spiders. The sturdy plastic cover makes this book ideal for use in the field, both for scientists and amateur enthusiasts

Zustand: NEW. 448, col photos. 210x148mm. PB. NEW. . This definitive guide offers a window into a fascinating world. Notorious species such as the Redback and the Sydney Funnel-web sit alongside less well known but equally intriguing spiders such as the ant-mimics and net-casting spiders. The introduction covers spider structure, evolution, reproduction, silk and venom, together with peculiarities of the family within an Australian context. The two main sections of the book deal with Trapdoor Spiders and Modern Spiders, and within each section there is a chapter on each of the 80 or so spider families that occur in Australia. Each is illustrated with beautiful photographs of the subjects, with more than 30 images per family for some of the larger groups such as the jumping spiders, and many rare images never before published.
