Insects are the forgotten members of Australia's rich and diverse fauna. Few people can recognize more than a few common groups, yet there are more insect species than all other animals put together. Name That Insect is the first guide to identifying the insects of southeastern Australia. There are extensive notes on the structure, recognition, and biology of all insect orders in the region. The book also contains several hundred original line drawings of diagnostic features. It will be a valuable reference for students, naturalists, and others interested in the natural history of Australia.
This is a colourful, useful and easy-to-read account of dung beetles in south-eastern Australia. The book tells why the CSIRO brought dung beetles to Australia, what they do, where they live, how to recognise them and how to help them spread. Seventeen species of imported dung beetles are described and illustrated in colour. Native beetles and beetles other than dung beetles found in dung pads are also described. Maps of the predicted and current distributions of each species follow the descriptions.
