Description

Seahorses: A Life-Size Guide to Every Species by Sara A. Lourie is a comprehensive and visually stunning reference on these fascinating creatures. With 57 species, including seadragons and pipefish, presented in lush, life-size photographs alongside descriptive drawings, this book provides detailed and up-to-date information on natural history and conservation. Seahorses are found worldwide and are highly sensitive to environmental destruction and disturbance, making them a flagship species for shallow-water habitat conservation. This book celebrates their remarkable variety and exquisiteness, while also highlighting recent discoveries and ecological concerns. Accessibly written, yet comprehensive in scope, it will be a valuable resource on seahorse evolution, biology, habitat, and behavior.
