| book description |

The go-to guide for identifying grasshoppers and related species that occur in the British isles. Grasshoppers and their allies draw attention to themselves not only by their active movements but also by their bright colours and song. This brand new beautifully illustrated field guide covers the 70 or so species of grasshoppers, cockroaches, stick insects, earwigs and praying mantids that may be encountered in the British countryside. A comprehensive introduction covers life history and field techniques, and is followed by detailed species accounts that include important identification details, along with information on food, habitat, conservation status and range, supplemented with distribution maps, sonograms and life history charts. Together with stunning photographs and Richard Lewington's exceptional artwork, this book is set to become the definitive guide to the orthoptera of the British Isles.
