Reseña del editor:
This is the first checklist of mammals of the world to include both English and scientific names of every species as well as a brief summary of distribution and habitat. A checkbox and space to record notes are provided for each species, making this an ideal volume for keeping a personal mammals life list. With 5,049 species included, the checklist is the most up-to-date available today.An appendix gives further details and offers a literature citation for over 519 species that either have been described as new to science or have been elevated from synonymy since 1993. Comprehensive indexes to English and scientific names assist with finding species that may appear in field guides or other works on mammals under different names. The book will be an invaluable resource for mammalogists everywhere, but will also appeal to any well traveled naturalist, including world birders and safari travelers, with an interest in recording mammals.
Biografía del autor:

Buchbeschreibung Zustand: new. (Hardcover, 2004). 2004 1st edition. Large 8vo (173 x 246mm). Pp312. 300-page list, bibliography. Lacks illustrations. Brown boards, spine titled in gilt. Slight use but very good in like dust-wrapper. This is an up to date check list of all the known species of mamals in the world, with 522 new species described between 1993 and 2002, as well as 41 species which have been reclassified as sub-species in that time. This is a valuable reference for anyone who is studying mammals, and particularly, provides a point of reference with regard to the ongoing extinction of many species. "Lest it be thought that these [currently endangered species] are nearly all obscure species of bats and rodents, which in truth nobody apart from mammalogists would miss, it should be pointed out that for eighteen families of mammals - over 14 percent of the families that remain - every species in that family is graded by IUCN as Near Threatened, Vulnerable, Endangered or Critically Endangered." This includes many bats, sperm whales, the river dolphins of three continents, the dugongs and manatees, rhinoceroses, tapirs and elephants. This is a useful book. However, for the casual reader, Mammals of the World: A Checklist, is just that, a 300-page list, with only one sentence on where each species is to be found, plus its Latin name and common name. This book has no pictures. . Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 49397
