Also included in this edition are the introduced Cane Toad and nine ‘stowaway' species that have arrived in Australia. The text for each species provides details of size, status, distribution, habitat, behaviour and advertisement call. Each species is detailed in it's own distribution map and is accompanied by one of Knight's beautiful full-colour painted illustrations.
