FIELD GUIDE TO INSECTS OF NORTH AMERICA
"The first truly thorough treatment of the North American insects in field guide form." —John Acorn, entomologist
Many insects are difficult even for the experts to identify. In the Kaufman Field Guide to Insects of North America, naturalists Kenn Kaufman and Eric R. Eaton offer a wealth of information on the observable behaviors and fascinating life histories of insects, using a broad ecological approach rather than overly technical terms that makes the book accessible to everyone. The lively, engaging text emphasizes the insects most likely to catch our attention while still covering every group that can be recognized. The guide is lavishly illustrated with more than 2,000 digitally enhanced photographs representing every major group of insects found in North America north of Mexico.
