Atlas of Millipedes
With very little published regarding millipedes in Britain and
Ireland, this publication should be of great interest to
myriapodologists and entomologists everywhere.
Paul Lee
This new volume will be of great value in
conservation work, allowing research workers and
planners to see in which types of habitat and
microhabitat the different millipede species may be found.
A further
feature and major strength of this volume is the
placing of the British and Irish fauna in a
European context, evidently permitting a better
understanding of the species' distributions and
the relative importance of the British and Irish
populations globally.

Here the dynamics and patterns of evolution,
ecology, and distribution of the entire Galapagos beetle
fauna are presented. The core of the
book is an account of the 486 species of beetles
now known from the archipelago, with details on
their distribution and bionomics.
This work will serve entomologists, island
ecologists, evolutionary biologists, and
conservation scientists as a framework to further
the study and protection of the beetles, the fauna
and flora in general, and the islands themselves.

This major new landmark publication provides the
first assessment of the changing status of
butterflies in the 21st Century. Butterflies are very sensitive indicators of
environmental change, so at a time
of rapid climate change there is a greater need than ever to
keep track of their changing fortunes.
This new assessment is based on the best
information on butterfly populations and
distributions anywhere in the world. The book is richly illustrated with many colour
photographs, maps and plots showing changes in
distribution and abundance, provides a vital and
up-to-date reference for the current state of the
59 butterfly species that regularly breed in our
islands.
