Quarto, paperback,442 pp.,tables, maps. WAS $50. This book analyses the IUCN status of all the species and subspecies of Australia's birds, including those of the offshore territories. For each bird the size and trend in their population and distribution has been analysed using the latest iteration of IUCN Red List Criteria to d…etermine their risk of extinction. The book also provides an account of all those species and subspecies that are or are likely to be extinct. In this completely revised edition each account covers not only the 2010 status but provides a retrospective assessment of the status in 1990 and 2000 based on current knowledge, taxonomic revisions and changes to the IUCN criteria, and then reasons why the status of some taxa has changed over the last two decades. The book contains some surprises - some alarming, some encouraging. This is not a book of lost causes. It is a call for action to keep the extraordinary biodiversity we have inherited.

This book is essential for all birdwatchers- local, overseas, serious or casual. ORIGINAL AUTHORS: Richard and Sarah Thomas spent 4 years in Australia travelling widely, recording a large number of endemic species. When they left Australia in 1994, Richard was credited with holding the biggest Australian list for a non-resident. CURRENT AUTHORS: David Andrew was fortunate enough to arrive in Australia just as birding started to grow in popularity. He started the country's first ornithological magazine Wingspan, and Australian Birding the country's first magazine for birders. Alan McBride has been birding from his early days in Lancashire, England to his arrival in the Antipodes 30-odd years ago. He is one of Australia's best known birders with a list of over 750 species.

In den WarenkorbOctavo, paperback,107 pp.,maps. Among the 42% of mammals classified as rodents, only 10% of them are significant agricultural pests. However, those 10% have 3 major impacts â" they cause major pre-harvest losses to most stages of growing crops, cause post-harvest losses to stored grain and vegetables and they are carriers of at…least 20 diseases which are severely debilitating to human health. If these impacts could be reduced by only a small percentage, then there would be substantial increased food security and better livelihoods for smallholder farmers in many developing countries. This special issue comprises a selection of the presentations delivered at the 4th International Conference on Rodent Biology and Management held in Bloemfontein in April 2010. It represents important research advances in our knowledge and understanding of rodents for their conservation and management and will be of ongoing interest to wildlife biologists, crop protection and conservation specialists, students and policy makers.
