Illustrated by Karen Phillipps
A major identification guide, and the first fully comprehensive work to the birds of this important region. All 820 known species are described in full, and illustrated on colour plates, with detailed notes on identification, voice, range, distribution & status, and habits. Plates do not face text. There are initial chapters covering the region's geography, climate, land-use and conservation, and the key birdwatching sites. There are appendices to land birds found on offshore islands groups; Bornean montane birds by mountain group; endemic/endangered species by islands; an annotated list of birds of the Malay Peninsula not described in the text; and regional organisations, journals and museums. A welcome and much-needed book.
