Field Guide to the Insects of the
Kruger National Park (2nd Edition)
Verleger: "The author describes, in
detail, each group of insects, its lifecycle, food and feeding methods, habits and habitats. The groups are
illustrated by full-colour photographs. The handy volume has been written and designed to make a vast and
confusing subject as understandable as possible to the general reader: technical details and terminology
have been kept to a minimum. The text is clear and is easy to read, and will be invaluable to identification
at the camps and picnic sites and on wilderness trails. It also has broader relevance - the insect groups
are representative of the invertebrate life found in many other parts of southern Africa."

Photographic Guide to the
Wildflowers of South Africa
von John Manning (Text & Fotos) & Colin Paterson-Jones (Fotos)
Verleger: "South Africa has a rich
flora of around 19000 different wildflower species. Several of these, especially proteas, gerberas,
agapanthus and clivias, are now internationally known, while the brightly coloured flowers of freesias,
nerinas, sparaxis and chincherinchees have become favourites in gardens throughout the world. Each year
thousands of visitors are drawn to the spring wildflower displays that transform the landscapes of
Namaqualand and the Western Cape. For those who wish to know more about South Africa's wildflowers this very
richness poses its own problems. Most flower guides cover little more than small stretches of the country
and the others include too few species to be of much use. Wildflowers of South Africa aims to
overcome these deficiencies. Carefully conceived to cover those wildflowers that are most likely to attract
attention, this countrywide guide includes nearly 900 of the most common and conspicuous wildflowers that
occur in South Africa and the neighbouring countries of Lesotho, Swaziland and Namibia. Details: An
easy-to-use format divides the country into three main wildflower regions, Grassland and Savannah, Fynbos
and Namaqualand, grouping the species into each region. An ingenious quick guide helps the reader to narrow
down the options at a glance. Authored and illustrated by professionals with wide experience in producing
guidebooks, Wildflowers of South Africa is the key to unlocking South Africa's wildflower heritage.
Each of the almost 900 species is illustrated and described, with information on its common and scientific
names, habitat, distribution map, flowering times and local uses. Similar species are placed together to aid
comparison and the concise text highlights their differences."
