Dragonfly Genera of the New World
'Dragonfly Genera of the New World'; is a beautifully illustrated and comprehensive guide to the taxonomy and ecology of dragonflies in North, Middle, and South America. A reference of the highest quality, this book reveals their striking beauty and complexity.
Although Odonata - dragonflies and damselflies - are among the most studied groups of insects, until now there has been no reliable means to identify the New World genera of either group. This volume provides fully illustrated and up-to-date keys for all dragonfly genera with descriptive text for each genus, accompanied by over 1,600 diagnostic illustrations, including wing patterns, characteristics of the genitalia, and distribution maps.
For entomologists, limnologists, ecologists, and other biologists, Dragonfly Genera of the New World is an indispensable resource for field identification and laboratory research.
