About this book

'A fantastic little book' - Birdwatch

Featuring 130 of the most common and readily identifiable species, this illustrated pocket guide is the ideal companion for anyone interested in the naturally occurring spiders found in the British Isles.

Presented in a portable and accessible format, this is the perfect guide for both beginners and more experienced enthusiasts.

Featuring stunning artwork by the world-renowned invertebrate artist Richard Lewington, this pocket guide covers 130 species of spider, as well as illustrations of webs, egg cocoons and spider behaviour.

The introduction features an 'at-a-glance' guide providing a quick reference to each species, with corresponding page numbers to find out more. Additional sections clearly explain how the reader can distinguish similar species, and the book also includes a glossary and bibliography to aid beginners.

Each species account includes a detailed description covering field characteristics, habitat and distribution, webs, egg cocoons and similar species. Species accounts are interspersed with beautifully illustrated spreads showing similar, confusion species, making this perfect for use in the field.
