Publisher's Synopsis
Pocket Guide to Insects of South Africa is the latest addition to Struik Nature's growing 'pocket guide' series. It will cover about 300 common insects - those most likely to be seen, as well as some particularly interesting species. An introduction will outline features common to all insects, their body structure, biology, and the phenomenon of metamorphosis. Thereafter, the concise three-species-per-page format will offer a full-colour photograph of each insect, along with a brief description and lifestyle information, as well as a distribution map.
