A result of an extensive Dutch inventory project, Dragonflies of the Netherlands describes the current distribution of all 70 dragonfly species known in the Netherlands.
It draws comparisons with previous distribution data. For each species, information is given on habitat, behaviour, flight season, threats, conservation, and distribution outside the Netherlands.
Several introductory chapters are included on anatomy and development, ecology, behaviour, reproduction, evolution, nomenclature, habitat preference, changes in fauna, distribution research, management, and identification of Dutch dragonflies.
Richly illustrated with numerous drawings, colour photos, and watercolours, this is the most comprehensive book on the subject available. Edited in cooperation with the Dutch Natural History Museum NATURALIS and EIS-Nederland.
This book is part of the series Nederlandse Fauna
