"A ground-breaking identification guide ... the perfect marriage of
artistic excellence, deep knowledge and, dare I say it, of
scientists' genuine affection." BRETT WESTWOOD This brand new
illustrated field guide covers all 47 species of ladybird occurring
in the British Isles in a handy and easy-to-use format.
Twenty-seven species are colourful and conspicuous and easily
recognised as ladybirds; the remaining species are more
challenging, but the clear illustrations and up-to-date text in
this guide will help to break down the identification barriers. A
useful introduction provides an overview of ladybird ecology, tips
on studying and recording, and suggested sites for finding
ladybirds. The main part of the book comprises detailed species
texts, covering field characters, food, habitats, suggested survey
methods, ranges, conservation statuses and distribution trends. An
illustrated at-a-glance identification guide and helpful pointers
for differentiating similar-looking species are also included. With
102 colour photographs and 47 distribution maps, combined with
Richard Lewington's peerless artwork, this is the definitive guide
to one of our most cherished and charismatic insect groups.
