Vogelgids Centraal Azie - Birds of Central Asia | Bloomsbury
Birds of Central Asia is the first field guide to include the former Soviet republics of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan, along with neighbouring Afghanistan. This vast area includes a diverse variety of habitats, and the avifauna is similarly broad, from sandgrouse, ground jays and larks on the vast steppe and semi-desert to a broad range of raptors, and from woodland species such as warblers and nuthatches to a suite of montane species, such as snowcocks, accentors and snowfinches. Birds of Central Asia includes 141 high-quality plates covering every species (and all distinctive races) that occur in the region, along with concise text focusing on identification and accurate colour maps. Important introductory sections introduce the land and its birds. Birds of Central Asia is a must-read for any birder or traveller visting this remote region.   "For a long time, there's been something of a gap in field-guide coverage across the Palearctic.

Vogelgids Birds of Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East: A Photographic Guide | Princeton University Press
Birds of Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East is the first comprehensive pocket-sized photographic field guide to every bird species in Europe – this includes winter visitors and common migrants but also all rarities to the region, even if they have been recorded only once. The guide also covers hypothetical species – those that have a good chance of being recorded due to such factors as range expansion and changing weather patterns.   The book's 2,200 stunning color photographs mean that every species is pictured, making field identification quick and easy. Succinct text covers key identification features, voice, habitat, and distribution, and distribution maps are provided for regular breeding species. Particular attention and details are given to help differentiate similar-looking species.   Lavishly illustrated, up-to-date, and wide-ranging, Birds of Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East is an essential field guide for every naturalist and birder.   "This is an excellent …

Plant Galls of the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg (Hardback)
Plant Galls of the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg (Hardback)
The study of plant galls and the keys to their identification have an almost century-long tradition in the Netherlands, culminating in several revised editions of Docters van Leeuwen's “Gallenboek” by the first author. For Belgium and Luxembourg, Jacques Lambinon substantially contributed with his “Aide-mémoire de cécidologie”, which was later revised and enhanced by the second author. The recent publication by the first author of “Plant Galls of Europe” also made a new advance in plant gall identification. This is a thorough revision of Buhr's comprehensive keys with additions from Houard and of many new records and descriptions gathered from the literature. Plant gall records have also significantly increased through biological data schemes that improve knowledge about the occurrence and abundance of species. Among many other websites, Dr Willem Ellis' “bladmineerders.nl” allows contributors from all over Europe, and especially from the Benelux, to benefit from an acute validation of

Vogelgids Birds of East Asia | Bloomsbury
Vogelgids Birds of East Asia | Bloomsbury
This is the first single volume guide ever devoted to the eastern Asian avifauna. The eastern Asian region, centring especially on the major islands off the continental coast (including Japan and Taiwan) and the immediately adjacent areas of the Asian continent from Kamchatka in the north and including the Korean Peninsula are an important centre of endemism.   Birds endemic to this region include representatives of many of the major families, from the world's largest eagle - Steller's Sea Eagle - to the tiny Formosan Firecrest. The east Asian continental coast and the offshore islands also form one of the world's major international bird migration routes, especially for waterfowl, shorebirds and raptors, while the east Asian continental mainland itself is home to a wide range of species little-known to western ornithologists such as Scaly-sided Merganser, Oriental Stork and Mugimaki Flycatcher.   The guide features the most up to date text available, which, in conjunction with extens…
