The comprehensive Illustrated Checklist of the Mammals of the World forms an impressive finale to the series. The 2 volume set updates the taxonomy of each currently recognized species of mammal, providing a complete checklist over the two volumes. Volume 1 covers Monotremata through to Rodentia. The new illustrated checklist incorporates all recently published revisions in new, brief species accounts for each species. In addition to the updated scientific name of each species, each account includes common names in English, French, German and Spanish, and the IUCN Red List Conservation Category. Taxonomic notes incorporate recent changes, and updated distributions are also included. If subspecies are recognized, they are updated along with their current distributions. Accompanying each species account is a scientific illustration in full color, adapted from the earlier volumes, along with a revised distribution map. …

Everybody knows that we are members of the mammalian Order Primates, but ask somebody to name some of our cousins and they would at best come up with five or six of the most widely known. Handbook of the Mammals of the World, Volume 3: Primates counts more than 470 of them: 138 species of prosimians the lemurs, lorises, pottos and tarsiers in Africa and Asia; 157 species of monkeys in the New World tropics; another 158 monkeys in the Old World tropics; and 25 apes, 19 of them gibbons along with six chimpanzees, gorillas and orangutans. Much of this extraordinary diversity has been discovered only in the past two decades. In the 1980s the count was 180 species. Now we know so much more of their diversity, and Handbook of the Mammals of the World, Volume 3: Primates presents them in all their remarkable variety of shapes, sizes, colors, habits and specializations.

Our knowledge of bats has exploded in the past two decades, and all of that information is reflected in this volume. The number of recognized species has increased by more than 400 during that time and is still growing. Bats occupy almost every habitat on six continents and their ecology is incredibly diverse. Pollinators and seed dispersers for thousands of species of plants, bats are critical for the maintenance of tropical ecosystems. As always, the text includes up-to-date information on every species, and each one is carefully illustrated. The family accounts include color photographs documenting a variety of behaviors of these interesting mammals. For this volume, the approximately 8100 references are included on a CD-ROM attached to the inside of the back cover. Barcelona. Lynx Edicions. 1008 pp., 73 plates with color illustrations, 404 color photos, 1422 color distribution maps, hardcover 4 [wth CD-ROM].…

The Handbook of the Mammals of the World is an essential reference series that covers all the world's mammal species. Combining high production values with outstanding photography and illustrations, each encyclopaedic volume provides authoritative information. The seven volumes published so far have covered most major orders except bats. This penultimate volume covers all of the remaining smaller and more obscure orders (Cingulata, Pilosa, Afrosoricida, Macroscelidea, Scandentia, Dermaptera, and Eulipotyphla), other than bats (Chiroptera). From armadillos, sloths, and anteaters to shrews and moles, Volume 8 includes a wide variety of interesting small or medium-sized mammals from around the world. Most of them have different kinds of invertebrate and insectivorous diets, except sloths and colugos, which are arboreal herbivores and folivores. Volume 8 includes a special chapter on conservation priorities and actions for the orders Cingulata, Pilosa, Afrosoricida, Macroscelidea, Eulipotyphla, Dermoptera, and Scandentia, written by Rosalind Kennerley, Thomas Lacher, Jr., Victor Mason, Shelby McCay, Nicolette Roach, P. J. Stephenson, Mariella Superina & Richard Young. Barcelona. Lynx Edicions. 710 pp., 28 plates with color illustrations, 480 color photos, 685 color distribution maps, hardcover 4.…

Rodents include species that have colonised almost every available habitat on earth, and others that have adapted to human beings and followed them as they also spread across the globe. Volume 7 completes the order Rodentia which represents arguably the most important order of mammals, both in terms of number of species, and in geographic distribution covering the families contained in the suborder Myomorpha, including the two largest families, Cricetidae and Muridae. This volume also includes a Special Chapter: Priorities for Conserving the World's Rodents by Thomas Lacher Jr., Richard Young, Samuel Turvey, Rosalind Kennerley & Nicolette Roach. Volume 7 will continue the coverage of the Order Rodentia - Suborder Myomorpha (mouse-like rodents): 9 families, 345 genera, 1,749 species Barcelona.
