Produktbeschreibung
"Common Spiders of North America is an exceptionally well-constructed and -illustrated guide that fills a large gap in America's natural history guides. It will stimulate scientific research and public interest in one of the most diverse and abundant of all animal groups."--Edward O. Wilson, Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University "Bradley provides a very well written introduction to the biology, natural history, collection, and identification of spiders and provides stunningly beautiful illustrations of nearly 500 common species found in North America. This book is designed to be used by all arachnophiles (and brave arachnophobes) from young to old and from backyard naturalist to scientist. No other field guide on this subject provides such detailed information and illustrations about so many species. It is a must-have for anyone interested in nature and the animals with whom we share this planet."--Paula E. Cushing, coauthor of Spiders of North America: An Identification Manual
