All of the main species and sub-species are included, and they are accompanied by photographs of both male and female, distribution maps, statuses, habitat descriptions, advice on when to find them, and tips to avoid confusion during the process of identification. <p/>Comprehensive general chapters also cover morphology, ecology and habitat, and assist with research in the field.
