内容説明
A field guide to marine flora and fauna of the British and the north-west European seashore, this work covers the identification of organisms, the ecological life cycle and gives a description of each species. It covers more than 500 plants and animals. The opening chapter deals with the shore environment. It is designed to provide an introduction, references to more advanced reading being provided at the end of the section. The bulk of the book is given over to a systematic coverage of the common plants and animals of the shore with emphasis on the biology of the species included. Each group of organisms is prefaced by a statement of characteristics and where appropriate the classification of the group is given. There are also suggestions and tips for project work.

内容説明
At one time or another, we have all been drawn by the fascination of the seashore. For the holiday maker, the relaxing day by the sea often turns out to be a most rewarding foray among rock pools and dense canopies of seaweed; for naturalists and students, the shore is one of the most challenging habitats. Whatever our interests and expertise, one of our first objectives when faced with the diversity of plant and animal life on the shore is to name the individual specimens and we quickly learn that this can be a difficult, though rewarding, occupation. Once an organism has been identified, a number of questions naturally follow. What is its life-cycle? How does it feed and reproduce? How long does it live? The answers to such questions give an insight into the lives of the plants and animals of the shore and are one of the first steps in an understand ing of the complexity of the shore environment. However, the information required to answer such questions is not always easily accessible and even when it is known it is often scattered in various books and research journals making it difficult and time consuming to find. Although a variety of identification keys and guides is available, some designed for the specialist, others for the amateur, such texts generally give little, if any, information on the biology of the organisms.
