Most people associate the Caribbean with palm-fringed sandy beaches, cricket and rum. Mention the West Indies to birders and they think todies and tremblers, among a remarkable array of c. 190 endemic species. Furthermore, no fewer than six families are confined to the region, and another (spindalises) virtually so. The region also receives many v...

Prachtige vogelgids met harde kaft. The first ornithological field guide covering the vast chain of the Indonesian archipelago has been completely revised following years of meticulous research.

Vogelgids Birds of the Horn of Africa | Bloomsbury
Vogelgids Birds of the Horn of Africa | Bloomsbury
The Horn of Africa has the highest endemism of any region in Africa, and around 70 species are found nowhere else in the world. Many of these are confined to the isolated highlands of Ethiopia and Eritrea, but a large number of larks specialise in the arid parts of Somalia and adjoining eastern Ethiopia, whilst the island of Socotra has its own suite of endemic species. The region is also an important migration route and wintering site for many Palearctic birds.   In summary, the changes to the second edition are:   - 7 whole plates have been replaced (six estrildid plates and the plate of the large white-headed gulls plate) plus more than 20 other new or replaced images - minor amendments made to dozens of other images - about 200 maps have had minor tweaks (mainly ranges in Somaliland, which are now better known) - all the maps have been improved with regard to colours and shading - many text corrections in light of new information (mainly distributional, but also ID and some taxono…

Vogelgids Birds of Madagascar and the Indian Ocean Islands | Bloomsbury

The Malagasy region contains one of the most extraordinary concentrations of biodiversity in the world.

Vagrants are also treated in detail, and all species are illustrated on a beautiful series of 124 color plates, with artwork from John Gale and Brian Small.

Vogelgids Birds of Colombia | Lynx
Vogelgids Birds of Colombia | Lynx
Fantastische toonaangevende vogelgids voor het meest vogelrijke land ter wereld Colombia. Zeer goede illustraties, spreidingskaartjes etc. , alles is aanwezig.  For birders, Colombia really is number one! Not only have more species been recorded there than in any other country, but almost one-fifth of the world’s birds occur in Colombia, packed into an area slightly greater than 1,100,000 km2. Stretching east to west from the Orinoco River to the Pacific Ocean, and north to south from the Caribbean to Amazonian headwaters, the country’s topography is remarkably diverse. Here, the Andes are separated into three ranges by two important valleys, the Cauca and the Magdalena, and there are two very important massifs, Santa Marta and Perijá, in the north of the country—in particular, the Santa Marta range is one of the great endemic hotspots in the world.   In recent years, a series of standard birding routes has evolved, many of them focused on the country’s privately and publicly owned pr…

Vogelgids Birds of Cyprus | Christopher Helm
Vogelgids Birds of Cyprus | Christopher Helm
The definitive guide to the birds of Cyprus. Cyprus is a great place for birding, and one of the most popular places for birders to visit in Europe. It holds populations of a number of regional scarcities that are very hard to see elsewhere, plus a number of endemic subspecies, and the two jewels in the crown--two full endemics, Cyprus Wheatear and Cyprus Warbler, the latter of which graces the jacket of this new Helm field guide to the island. Detailed plates are allied to concise identification text, with accurate maps stemming from Colin Richardson's decades-long programme of population-mapping on the island. Together, these elements make this the definitive guide to Cyprus's birds, one that no visitor to this beautiful island can be without. Richard Porter is the unquestioned world authority on the birds of the region. The author of Birds of the Middle East, Richard has been active in the conservation of birds throughout the OSME region since the 1960s. His work in Iraq, Jordan, …

Productomschrijving

Most people associate the Caribbean with palm-fringed sandy beaches, cricket and rum. Mention the West Indies to birders and they think todies and tremblers, among a remarkable array of c. 190 endemic species. Furthermore, no fewer than six families are confined to the region, and another (spindalises) virtually so. The region also receives many vagrants from both North and South America, and even transatlantic arrivals from the Old World. If this were not sufficient enticement, several of the most poorly known and enigmatic birds in the world—including Ivory-billed Woodpecker and Semper’s Warbler—as well as others requiring further taxonomic investigation, provide additional allure.
