This is the first book to list all the species of stick insects known from Sumatra. The people of Indonesia are very friendly and their cultures are incredibly attractive. The range of widllife habitats are immense; only of those from Sundaland Wallacea and Gondwandaland but also including plants and animals from high and icy montane forests to hot and humid mangrove swamps. The animal life in Indonesia therefore is wonderfully diverse. All entomologists naturalists nature photographers and indeed anyone with the remotest interest in nature will find this book indispensible for the identification of any stick insect they might have the good fortune to come across in Sumatra. This volume is the fourth in a series of Taxonomic Guides to the Stick Insects of South East Asia.

This fourth volume is again lavishly illustrated with beautiful colour photographs of all species of stick insects found in Sumatra. First Edition. Pictorial laminated boards. New/New. Hardcover
2017012559Kota Kinabalu & Singapore 2017. Very well illustrated large 8vo pp xii 261 pictorial laminated boards dustwrapper. This is a new copy but there has been a very slight bumping of the corners in transit. The first volume of A Taxonomic Guide to the Stick Insects of Borneo stunned the entomological world with its extensive photographs and comprehensive identification keys. Volume II continues in this tradition to open new trails to a better understanding of Bornean stick insect fauna. This time the author concentrates his efforts on the stick insects of Mount Trusmadi the second highest mountain in Borneo with her peak at 2642 m asl. Besides Trusmadi the author also studied the drawers of the entomological collections of Kinabalu Park and Forest Research Centre Sepilok. Volume II lists 373 Bornean species or subspecies from 92 genera with descriptions of 4 new genera 1 genus new to Borneo 37 new species 4 new name combinations 3 new synonyms; 2 wrong synonyms and 9 descriptions of the previously unknown sex of known species. Together these two volumes will have described 19 new genera with 88 new species. This volume is an indispensable reference to anyone interested in the insect fauna of Borneo; no matter if its just for admiring the splendid photographs or trying to identify an insect in the forest or most essentially for the person working through a taxonomic problem.

Ink notation on front of the DJ. DJ has wear and soiling. Marie Arana born Lima Peru is a Peruvian author editor journalist critic and the inaugural Literary Director of the Library of Congress. Marie Arana earned a B.A. in Russian at Northwestern University an M.A. in linguistics at Hong Kong University and a certificate of scholarship at Yale University in China. She began her career in book publishing becoming vice president and senior editor at Harcourt Brace and Simon & Schuster. For more than a decade she was the editor in chief of "Book World" the book review section of The Washington Post during which time she instituted the partnership of The Washington Post with First Lady Laura Bush and the Librarian of Congress James H. Billington in hosting the annual National Book Festival on the Washington Mall. Arana claimed to be the only Hispanic division head of the newspaper at this time. She for many years directed all programming for the National Book Festival among numerous other programs at the Library. Arana is a Writer at Large for The Washington Post. Arana 's memoir about a bicultural childhood American Chica: Two Worlds One Childhood finalist for the 2001 National Book Award as well as the Martha PEN/Albrand Award for the Art of the Memoir and the author of Cellophane a satirical novel which was a finalist for the John Sargent Prize. From her father's genteel Peruvian family Marie Arana was taught to be a proper lady yet from her mother's American family she learned to shoot a gun break a horse and snap a chicken's neck for dinner. Arana shuttled easily between these deeply separate cultures for years. But only when she immigrated with her family to the United States did she come to understand that she was a hybrid American an individual whose cultural identity was split in half. Coming to terms with this split is at the heart of this graceful beautifully realized portrait of a child who "was a north-south collision a New World fusion. An American Chica." Through Arana's eyes the reader will discover not only the diverse earthquake-prone terrain of Peru charged with ghosts of history and mythology but also the vast prairie lands of Wyoming "grave-slab flat" and hemmed by mountains. In these landscapes resides a fierce and colorful cast of family members who bring her history vividly to life among them Arana's proud paternal grandfather Victor Manuel Arana Sobrevilla who one day simply stopped coming down the stairs; her dazzling maternal grandmother Rosa Cisneros y Cisneros "clicking through the house as if she were making her way onstage"; Grandpa Doc her maternal grandfather who by example taught her about the constancy of love. But most important are Arana's parents Jorge and Marie. He a brilliant engineer she a talented musician. For more than half a century these two passionate strong-willed people struggled to overcome the bicultural tensions in their marriage and finally to prevail. The Dial Press hardcover
