Collins Field Guide to Spiders of
Britain and Northern Europe by Michael J Roberts
Review Spiders are
the most obvious group of animals - they share with us our houses and
gardens. They also have some of the most fascinating colours, behaviour
and biology. This book is designed to aid identification of these animals,
without using any complicated keys or equipment. Each of the 450 species
covered is illustrated in colour, with paintings of all the common colour
variations and differences between the sexes, and described in detail in
the text. The general features of each family are also described, with
information on courtship, hunting and web-making behaviour. A key to
spiders' webs is also included in the introduction. Each species has
illustrations to allow conclusive identification of the
species.
