Coral Reef Animals of the Indo-Pacific


Branchers Terry Gosliner, Dave Behrens and Gary Williams have teamed together, broadened their coverage and produced a spectacular field guide to the Coral Reef Invertebrates of the Indo-Pacific. While the guide includes 1500 color photographs of 1103 species from sponges to tunicates, as you might guess , opisthobranchs were not left out. Exactly 1/10 of the book or 110 speicies opisthobranchs are included. In a format similar to Behrens' branchs of the Pacific Coast and Goliner's branchs of South Africa, each species description covers identification, taxonomic issues, size, natural history, and geographic range. Selecting from the photo collections of 50 of the World's leading underwater photographers, this book truly presents the best color images depicting necessary diagnostic fieatues for accurate identification.
