This is the first fully illustrated guide to all 336 dragonfly and damselfly species of eastern North America--from the rivers of Manitoba to the Florida cypress swamps--and the companion volume to Dennis Paulson's acclaimed field guide to the dragonflies and damselflies of the West. Dragonflies and Damselflies of the East features hundreds of color photos that depict all the species found in the region, detailed line drawings to aid in-hand identification, and a color distribution map for every species--and the book's compact size and user-friendly design make it the only guide you need in the field. Species accounts describe key identification features, distribution, flight season, similar species, habitat, and natural history. Paulson's authoritative introduction offers a primer on dragonfly biology and identification, and also includes tips on how to study and photograph these stunningly beautiful insects. Illustrates all 336 eastern species Features hundreds of full-color photos Includes detailed species accounts, line drawings to aid identification, and a color distribution map for every species Offers helpful tips for the dragonfly enthusiast Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

Both books have an introductory part, explaining overall basics of these insects. Both also have a general natural history section.
After these sections, the references go through each species with text, range maps, flight season, good diagnostic photos, and more. The index is also very good.
I gave my versions slightly less than a 5-star rating only because of the book binding. These are large heavy texts and would have been better produced in a standard hardback construction than the paperback versions I was able to find when I purchased them.
Both the eastern and western references are very well worth having regardless of binding. ( )
