Condizione: New. Idioma/Language: Inglés. Este checklist ilustrado cubre Madagascar, uno de los principales hotspots de biodiversidad del mundo, famoso por su asombrosa fauna y flora y especialmente por la gran cantidad de extraordinarias especies endémicas. Madagascar se encuentra también entre las cuatro regiones principales del mundo de primates, ya que cuenta con 112 especies y subespecies endémicas de lémures. Este libro está destinado a facilitar el ecoturismo de Madagascar, un país de biodiversidad única que puede ser observada y disfrutada con relativa facilidad, Es una herramienta fácil de usar, tanto residentes como visitantes de la región, que permite conocer rápidamente los 253 mamíferos terrestres y marinos que pueden encontrar. Cuenta con la información más actualizada de los mamíferos de la zona a la que le acompaña una ilustración de todas las especies y subespecies de Madagascar y de las islas cercanas del Océano Índico: las Comoras, las Seychelles, la Reunión y Mauricio. Este libro forma parte de la colección Lynx Illustrated Checklists, creada a partir del ingente material recopilado para la serie del Handbook of the Mammals of the Word y que se ha sintetizado en prácticos libros para la visita a un destino específico. La geografía colombiana es extremadamente diversa: de este a oeste se extiende desde el río Orinoco hasta el Océano Pacífico y de norte a sur desde el Caribe hasta las cabeceras de la cuenca amazónica. Los Andes están conformados por tres cadenas montañosas principales separadas por los valles del Cauca y del Magdalena. En el norte se encuentran dos grandes sierras, la de Santa Marta y la del Perijá, siendo la primera uno de los principales puntos calientes (hotsposts) del mundo para la observación de aves endémicas. En los últimos años, las rutas habituales para la observación de aves del país han ido evolucionando, focalizándose en las zonas protegidas tanto de propiedad privada como pública, permitiendo así la observación de casi todas las aves endémicas de Colombia, desde loros y colibríes con extravagantes plumajes hasta los furtivos gralláridos. En Sudamérica, no hay mejor lugar que Colombia para escapar de los caminos trillados y descubrir cosas nuevas, como lo demuestra el reciente hallazgo de un grallárido aparentemente nuevo cerca de la ciudad de Cali. 1965 especies; 94 endémicas, 101 casi endémicas, 4 introducidas, 42 accidentales. Más de 3600 ilustraciones y más de 2000 mapas de distribución. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Couverture souple. Condizione: Comme neuf. Edition originale. Paris , MNHN, 2014. 1 Volume/1. -- Comme Neuf -- Broché cousu. Format 24,7 x 18 cm ( 1835 gr ). ------- 841 pages richement illustrées de photos et cartes couleurs. ************************* Madagascar, véritable laboratoire de l'évolution pour la faune et la flore, est le 2e pays au monde en matière de diversité de primates (bien qu'il représente moins de 70 % de la surface du premier pays, le Brésil) avec 98 espèces endémiques. C'est aussi un pays fragile dont les richesses naturelles s'érodent très rapidement. Ainsi, en 2012, l'UICN a révélé une hausse dramatique du nombre de lémuriens menacés d'extinction. Avec 15 % des espèces et sous-espèces de primates connus au monde, 20 % des genres et 36 % des familles, la responsabilité du pays en termes de conservation n'en est que plus grande. D'un usage facile, cet ouvrage est conçu pour être une référence pour les écotouristes et les primatologues amateurs. Les 102 taxons actuellement connus sont richement illustrés et la répartition géographique, l'écologie et le comportement de chacun d'eux sont décrits en détail. Un repère en couleur sur la tranche de l'ouvrage permet rapidement de visualiser les cinq familles de lémuriens actuels. Les six premiers chapitres présentent l'histoire géologique de l'île, comment les lémuriens y sont arrivés, les espèces éteintes, la découverte et l'étude des lémuriens actuels ainsi que les enjeux de leur conservation. Les chapitres 7 à 11 constituent l'essentiel de l'ouvrage et fournissent les données détaillées sur les 102 espèces et sous-espèces. Enfin, les annexes offrent de nombreuses cartes présentant la topographie de l'île, ses régions biogéographiques et domaines floristiques, et répertorient les lieux où peuvent être observés ces lémuriens dans leur habitat naturel. La riche bibliographie permet au lecteur d'approfondir et d'élargir encore ses connaissances. . "" ********************************.
