Wildlife of the Eastern Caribbean

Steve Holliday & Gill Holliday

This is the first photographic field identification guide to Eastern Caribbean birds, mammals, amphibians, reptiles, land crabs, dragonflies, and butterflies. Beautiful and easy-to-use, the guide covers 17 island groups stretching from the Virgin Islands south through the Lesser Antilles, from Anguilla to Grenada, where a unique range of flora and fauna evolved in relative isolation. Around 30 percent of all the species included are endemic to the region. For each island group there is a list of endemic and - don't miss - species, alongside suggested sites to visit; site accessibility is indicated where possible.

Whether you live in the Eastern Caribbean or are visiting, this is an indispensable guide to the spectacular wildlife of its beautiful islands.
