Description:
A richly illustrated photographic field guide This is the first photographic field identification guide to Eastern Caribbean birds, mammals, amphibians, reptiles, land crabs, dragonflies, and butterflies. Beautiful and easy to use, the guide covers 17 island groups stretching from the Virgin Islands south through the Lesser Antilles, from Anguilla to Grenada, where a unique range of flora and fauna evolved in relative isolation. Around 30 per cent of all the species included are endemic to the region. For each island group, there is a list of endemic and don’t miss species, alongside suggested sites to visit; site accessibility is indicated where possible.
Whether you live in the Eastern Caribbean or are visiting, this is an indispensable guide to the spectacular wildlife of its beautiful islands.
