A Photographic Guide to the Dragonflies and Damselflies of Tasmania | Nigel Forteath | 2024 [NEW – SC]

A field guide to the dragonflies and damselflies found in Tasmania, written by Nigel Forteath and published in 2024. The book covers the species found in Tasmanian freshwater habitats — lakes, rivers, ponds and wetlands — with large colour photographs for identification alongside notes on habitat, behaviour and distribution.

Tasmania's dragonfly fauna is distinct from the mainland in a number of respects, and this is the first dedicated photographic guide to the island's odonates. At 191 pages it covers both the common species and those more restricted in range, making it useful whether you're identifying what you've seen on a bush walk or conducting a more systematic survey of a freshwater site.

Suitable for naturalists, bushwalkers, freshwater ecologists, students and anyone with an interest in Tasmanian insects and aquatic fauna.
