[Odonata-l] new book on Australian dragonflies

[Dennis Paulson]

Günther Theischinger and John Hawking have finished their monumental  
field guide to the 324 Odonata species of Australia, and it was just  
published by CSIRO. I have not seen a copy yet but am confident it  
will be one of the great books on dragonflies. The continent of  
Australia has an awesome odonate fauna, with many unique and  
interesting groups and stunningly beautiful species. This book has  
all species represented by color photos or scans and distribution  
maps, with identification keys for adults and larvae. The illustrated  
identification keys produced by Günther for the previous Australian  
guide were the best I've ever used, and I assume these will be as  
good or better. What more could you ask?

See the CSIRO website to learn more about it: http://
