Cartoné (tapa dura cartón). Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Nuevo. 02. La primera guía de campo que cubre las aves del inmenso archipiélago de Indonesia, completamente revisada después de años de meticulosa investigación. Esta segunda edición incluye más de 2.800 ilustraciones, de las cuales 325 son nuevas y unas 500 son…las originales retocadas, complementadas con 1.350 mapas de todas las especies regulares. Los mapas de las especies son más precisos ya que incluyen la ampliación de tres regiones geográficas y también mediante un mapa que cubre más ampliamente la extensión de todo el archipiélago. La guía describe las 1.456 especies de aves presentes en la región, incluyendo 628 endémicas, 106 accidentales, 4 especies introducidas y 10 especies todavía no descritas formalmente. Esta diversidad representa el 13% de las aves del mundo. Destacar que todas las subespecies están descritas con detalle. La guía abarca completamente las regiones biogeográficas de la Sonda (Sumatra, Borneo, Java y Bali) y Wallacea (Sulawesi, las Molucas e islas menores de la Sonda), además de todas las islas satélite. Esta región se extiende por una zona de más de 4.000 km a lo largo del ecuador e incluye Timor Oriental, Brunéi Darussalam, los estados malasios de Sabah y Sarawak en Malasia Oriental y la mayor parte del territorio de la República de Indonesia. La amplia experiencia de los autores y su conocimiento de las aves de la región combinados con la incorporación de las últimas novedades taxonómicas, el conocimiento de la distribución, las características de identificación y las vocalizaciones hacen de esta guía una referencia indispensable para cualquier persona interesada en la avifauna de esta increíblemente diversa región. Se presta especial atención a la identificación de las especies más difíciles, por lo que es también de utilidad para otras zonas de Asia. La geografía colombiana es extremadamente diversa: de este a oeste se extiende desde el río Orinoco hasta el Océano Pacífico y de norte a sur desde el Caribe hasta las cabeceras de la cuenca amazónica. Los Andes están conformados por tres cadenas montañosas principales separadas por los valles del Cauca y del Magdalena. En el norte se encuentran dos grandes sierras, la de Santa Marta y la del Perijá, siendo la primera uno de los principales puntos calientes (hotsposts) del mundo para la observación de aves endémicas. En los últimos años, las rutas habituales para la observación de aves del país han ido evolucionando, focalizándose en las zonas protegidas tanto de propiedad privada como pública, permitiendo así la observación de casi todas las aves endémicas de Colombia, desde loros y colibríes con extravagantes plumajes hasta los furtivos gralláridos. En Sudamérica, no hay mejor lugar que Colombia para escapar de los caminos trillados y descubrir cosas nuevas, como lo demuestra el reciente hallazgo de un grallárido aparentemente nuevo cerca de la ciudad de Cali. 1965 especies; 94 endémicas, 101 casi endémicas, 4 introducidas, 42 accidentales. Más de 3600 ilustraciones y más de 2000 mapas de distribución. LIBRO.

The first ornithological field guide covering the vast chain of the Indonesian archipelago has been completely revised following years of meticulous research. This second edition now encompasses over 2,800 illustrations, including 325 ent…irely new figures and nearly 500 alterations to the original artwork, supplemented by 1,350 maps of all regularly occurring species. The species are mapped with improved accuracy by including three magnified geographical regions, or by a larger archipelago-wide map frame. Describes all 1,456 bird species known to occur in the region, including 628 endemics, 106 vagrants, 4 introduced species and 10 species yet to be formally described. Together these represent over 13% of global bird diversity. Importantly, all subspecies are described in detail. Fully covers the biogeographic regions of the Greater Sundas (Sumatra, Borneo, Java and Bali) and Wallacea (Sulawesi, the Moluccas and the Lesser Sundas), plus all satellite islands. This region spans an arc of over 4,000 km along the Equator, including East Timor, Brunei Darussalam, the East Malaysian states of Sabah and Sarawak and most of the territory of the Republic of Indonesia.- Taxonomy follows an integrative approach based on bioacoustics, genomics and morphology, often based on the authors' own peer-reviewed systematic work in the region.- Detailed texts covering status, taxonomy, habitat and behaviour, all plumage variations, vocalisations, and similar species.- 1,456 species, 628 endemics, 106 vagrants, 4 introduced and 10 undescribed species.- Over 2,800 illustrations covering all species and distinctive subspecies, birds in flight, males and females, immatures and non-breeding plumages, where appropriate.- 1,350 full-colour range maps for all regularly occurring species, spread across four regional map frames.- List of all the bird names in Bahasa Indonesia, useful for travelling birders, researchers and to help interaction with Bahasa Indonesia speakers.- A revised, more traditional and familiar index.- Keeping within the taxonomic constraints, species accounts have been moved so that similar and/or regional species are on the same page, allowing for easier comparisons, and less time spent flicking between pages.
