Australians have a love–hate relationship with spiders. Some spiders, such as the Redback and the Sydney Funnelweb, inspire fear. Yet Peacock Spiders, with their colourful fan-spreading courtship dances, have won rapturous appreciation worldwide. A Field Guide to Spiders of Australia uses photographs of living animals to help people identify many of the spiders they encounter. Featuring over 1300 colour photographs, it is the most comprehensive account of Australian spiders ever published. With more than two-thirds of Australian spiders yet to be scientifically described, this book sets the scene for future explorations of our extraordinary Australian fauna. This field guide will be enjoyed by naturalists and anyone with an interest in learning more about Australia's incredible arachnids.

Invertebrates, which make up approximately 95 percent of animals, includes creatures of all sizes, shapes and lifestyles. Many land invertebrates, such as earthworms, spiders and a huge number of insects, affect human existence for better or for worse every day. Some invertebrates, such as oysters, grasshoppers, snails and crabs, are eaten by humans. This volume attempts to convey the diversity and fascination of the invertebrates which live in every Australian habitat, from rainforest to desert salt lake, from mountain peak to suburban home. Look closely and you will discover that these small creatures are not "creepy-crawlies", but marvellous members of the great world of living things. This book is intended to be an observer's introduction to Australia's wealth of land and freshwater invertebrate animals. The photographs showcase representatives of less well-known, as well as familiar, groups. Welcome to a world of often small, but always remarkable, creatures!

This definitive guide to the subject offers a window into a fascinating world. Notorious species such as the Redback and the Sydney Funnel-web sit alongside less well-known but equally intriguing spiders such as the ant-mimics and net-casting spiders. The introduction covers spider structure, evolution, reproduction, silk and venom, together with peculiarities of the family within an Australian context. The two main sections of the book deal with Trapdoor Spiders and Modern Spiders, and within each section there is a chapter on each of the 80 or so spider families that occur in Australia. Each is illustrated with beautiful photographs of the subjects, with more than 30 images per family for some of the larger groups such as the jumping spiders, and many rare images never before published.
