Guide to the Mammals of China

Andrew Smith & Yan Xie, Eds

The most comprehensive guide to all 556 species of mammals found in China. China's stunning diversity of natural habitats - from parched deserts to lush tropical forests - is home to more than 10 percent of the world's mammal species.

An up-to-date distribution map accompanies each species account, and colour plates illustrate a majority of species. Written by a team of leading specialists, including Professor Wang Sung who provides a history of Chinese mammalogy, this the ideal reference for researchers and a delight for anyone interested in China's rich mammal fauna. High-quality colour plates accompany the detailed text. This title is organized taxonomically for easy reference and includes an extensive bibliography.
