Well, the insects book is finally out. The latest book in the 'Naturalist's Guide' series that I have worked on. This time my co-author was the wonderfully talented Rachel Whitlock.

This book is an easy-to-use identification guide to the 292 species of insect most commonly seen in Australia. As with other books in the series, it features high quality photographs from some of Australia’s (and some international) top nature photographers.  Each of these are accompanied by detailed species descriptions, which include nomenclature, size, distribution, habitat and habits. The introduction covers modern Australian insects, non-insect hexapods and life cycles. The book also includes a checklist of the insect families of Australia, listing the number of genera, species and subspecies in each family.

You can read more about this title on my books page and copies of this and other titles I have worked on in the Naturalist's Guide series are available from my online store.
