Zustand: New. 496, 47 col plates, text figs. . HB. NEW. . Reprinted with minor amendments (first published 2012). An identification guide to the adult Coleoptera of the Republic of Ireland and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and the British Crown Dependency of the Isle of Man. It is the first comprehensive account of the beetles of the British Isles since Joy's 'A Practical Handbook of British Beetles' (1932).Intended as a reference source for coleopterists, ecological consultants and museum curatorial staff, as well as naturalists wishing to make the transition from a casual to a more serious interest in beetles. By bringing together reliable modern keys and using the latest taxonomic arrangement and nomenclature, it is hoped that beginning coleopterists will more quickly learn how to identify beetles and gain added confidence in their identifications.Keys are provided to every native and naturalised species, including those which have become extinct in historical times. Copious line drawings are provided alongside the keys to illustrate critical characters. High resolution colour photographs of selected species, at least one per genus, are also provided in a series of colour plates.Four volumes are planned:Volume 1: Sphaeriusidae to SilphidaeVolume 2: StaphylomataVolume 3: Geotrupidae to ScraptiidaeVolume 4: Cerambycidae to CurculionidaeVolume 1 includes the familiar whirligig beetles, diving beetles, ground beetles and carrion beetles, as well as the 'hydrophiloid' group of water beetle families, hister beetles and others.

Since the publication of volume 1 in 2012, Andrew Duff s Beetles of Britain and Ireland has become the definitive beetle fauna for the British Isles, being the first comprehensive account since Joy s A Practical Handbook of British Beetles, published in 1932. After the publication of volume 4 in 2016 and volume 3 in 2020, the publication of volume 2 completes this monumental task. This book covers the very large family Staphylinidae (rove beetles) exclusively. As this has been the most challenging family to prepare keys for, it was postponed to the end of this project. An extended preface to this volume provides information on finding rove beetles, collecting equipment, identification tips, rove beetle morphology, specimen preparation and curation, taking measurements, and changes to the checklist. __Volume 2 features: _- keys to 1148 species in 19 subfamilies and 254 genera, with family, subfamily and genus introductions; _- detailed species notes including supporting characters, habitat, phenology, distribution and abundance; _- a bibliography; _- 60 colour plates with 360 photographs of selected species; _- and an index to scientific and English names.
