Product Description

Product Description

Mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians, butterflies and moths, other insects, spiders, slugs and snails, trees and flowering plants from all round the Mediterranean are all included here, and each section is coded with a symbol for quick reference. From Cyprus in the east to the western end of the Mediterranean, the guide also covers species found in Portugal and the Algarve. While most Mediterranean habitats are low-lying, the range of the guide extends into the foothills of mountains. Shells and animals likely to be seen while snorkelling are also described and illustrated.

4.0 out of 5 stars In the field this is the only book you need., 8 Oct 2000
By M Ellis & F Ellis (Epsom, Surrey United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This book does not cover every species you are likely to encounter but it gives a good 'taster' of most. It covers a wide range from amphibians to insects and is indispensable for those enquiring minds. The photographs are excellent and the book is very portable and user friendly. I would recommend to anybody with a general interest in the wildlife of this area.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not worth buying, 9 Jun 2009
By Ms. Srv Herault "smi12308" (Swansea, GB) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Disappointing! I expected a good selection of species found exclusively in the Mediterranean region but many pages described species also found in the UK and Northern Europe. It is a shame, Paul Sterry could have done a lot better by selecting a bit more carefully and by giving a bit more space to species such as bees for example(only half a page in the book).

A very good general book on the natural history of Mediterranean Wildlife. Specialists botanical books are available for individual Greek islands and worth looking at, especially for the island of Crete.
