![]() The Wildlife of Southern Africa -field guideSubmitted by Gerda on Tue, 05/12/2006 - 9:47am. Books and MediaThe Wildlife of Southern Africa A field guide to the animals and plants of the region by Vincent Carruthers I really like this field guide because it has mammals, birds, insects, frogs, reptiles, birds, wild flowers, trees and grasses of Southern Africa all in one book. Easy to take with you on holiday. ISBN 1-86872-451-4 ____________________________![]() Sat, 15/12/2007 - 8:33am
This sounds like a good book. I will look for it the next time I am in the book store. Another good book for insect lovers is Field Guide to Insects of Southern Africa by Mike Picker, Charles Griffiths, & Alan Weaving. The book was updated in 2004 and is all color photos of the insects. The mysterious hippo fly that was seen on the Nkorho cam tree is pictured in the book. Tabanus Biguttatus is the scientific name and it is a very large horsefly. I complement the zoomie the day it was found on the tree. The photo posted by Ms Charlie and Kids is actually a better one than in the book and is an exact match. The book gives a good description of it and all the other insects in the book. ![]() ![]() |
