The 'Encyclopedia of Australian Wildlife' complements the Discover & Learn Amazing Facts Books on Natural History, but also stands alone as an introduction to aUstralia's unique fauna.
Broken into sections on mammals, birds, frogs and reptiles, insects and spiders, marine life and Australia's fishes, the encyclopedia introduces the principles of taxonomy and gives a simple review of Australia's geological and fossil history. A comprehensive glossary and index of species illustrated ensures complete accessibility. The text is illustrated with full-colour photographs that show the beauty and variety of Australia's fauna, and presents basic principles for observing and studying wildlife.
