The book introduces basic entomology, emphasising perspectives on insect diversity important in conservation assessment and setting priorities for management, as a foundation for managers and others without entomological training or background. It bridges the gap between photographic essays on insect identification and more technical texts, to illustrate and discuss many aspects of taxonomic, ecological and evolutionary diversity in the Australian insect fauna, and its impacts in human life, through outlines of many aspects of insect natural history.

A walk in the bush reveals insects visiting flowers, patrolling the air, burrowing under bark and even biting your skin. Every insect has characteristic feeding preferences and behaviours. Insects of South-Eastern Australia is a unique field guide that uses host plants and behavioural attributes as the starting point for identifying insects. Richly illustrated with colour photographs, the different species of insects found in Australia’s temperate south-east, including plant feeders, predators, parasites and decomposers, are presented. The guide is complemented by an introduction to the insects of the region, including their environment, classification, life history, feeding strategies and behaviour. Fascinating boxes on camouflage, mimicry and many other topics are also included throughout. Whether you are a field naturalist, entomologist or just want to know what’s in your backyard, Insects of South-Eastern Australia will help you to identify the insects most likely to be encountered, as well as understand the basics of their ecology and behaviour.

A Guide to the Beetles of Australia provides a comprehensive introduction to the Coleoptera – a huge and diverse group of insects. Beetles make up 40 per cent of all insects known to science. The number of described beetle species in the world – around 350 000 – is more than six times the number of all vertebrate species. New beetle species are being discovered all the time. Of the 30 000 species that may occur in Australia, only 20 000 have been scientifically described. These include around 6500 weevils (Curculionidae), 2600 scarabs, dung beetles and chafers (Scarabaeidae); and 2250 leaf beetles (Chrysomelidae). A Guide to the Beetles of Australia highlights the enormous diversity of this unique insect Order. It emphasises the environmental role of beetles, their relationships with other plants and animals, and their importance to humans. Winner of the 2010 Whitley Medal.

Excerpt from Australian Insects There have been so many enquiries from people in all parts of Australia, as well as from visitors from other countries, for a book dealing with our insects, that the writer thinks that the time has come when a Text Book dealing exclusively with Australian Entomology will be well received, both at home and abroad, by all those interested in this subject. The difficulty has been to write in a popular style so as to interest the general reader, and induce him to further follow his studies of the wonders of Natural History, yet at the same time to define the characteristics 'of the insects described and give some idea of their classification, so that it will not lose its value as a Text Book to the student while enlarging the circle of its readers.

Invertebrates, which make up approximately 95 percent of animals, includes creatures of all sizes, shapes and lifestyles. Many land invertebrates, such as earthworms, spiders and a huge number of insects, affect human existence for better or for worse every day. Some invertebrates, such as oysters, grasshoppers, snails and crabs, are eaten by humans. This volume attempts to convey the diversity and fascination of the invertebrates which live in every Australian habitat, from rainforest to desert salt lake, from mountain peak to suburban home. Look closely and you will discover that these small creatures are not "creepy-crawlies", but marvellous members of the great world of living things. This book is intended to be an observer's introduction to Australia's wealth of land and freshwater invertebrate animals. The photographs showcase representatives of less well-known, as well as familiar, groups. Welcome to a world of often small, but always remarkable, creatures!
