Collins Gem Spiders by Paul Hillyard
Review The only
truly pocket-sized photographic guide to over 220 species of the world's
spiders. This Collins Gem is being reissued in flexi-binding, providing the
durability of a hardback with the flexibility of a paperback. The stylish
new cover design will enliven this and 70 other bestselling Gems. Spiders
are among the stars of the natural world and the variety of species is
amazing. They occur virtually everywhere and are one of the most
successful groups of animals. Collins Gem Spiders is the ideal
introduction to their lives and environment. Each entry in the book
includes:
-
A full-colour photograph and description of the species
-
Details of size, web, habitat, geographical distribution and at what time
of year the species can be found
-
An indication of whether or not the
species is venomous
The introduction covers spiders and their relatives,
anatomy, the production and uses of silk, reproduction and spider venom,
as well as information on how to keep spiders.
