Dragonflies and Damselflies of Britain and Western Europe

A very fine photographic guide to all the Dragonflies and Damselflies of Britain and Western Europe.

This visually impressive encyclopedia is a must-have for Britain''s army of dragonfly-watchers. Written at an advanced level, this book contains keys, first-class photography, and highlights to key identification criteria in the adults.

Very unusually, nymphs are also afforded this treatment, making this a truly unique resource for anyone interested in freshwater ecology. There are also detailed diagrams of wing venation ΓÇô crucial for some identifications, rarely covered in other guides (and never with this sort of clarity) ΓÇô and plates showing confusion abdomens, a superb resource.
