Reef Creature Identification: Tropical Pacific

The long-awaited, 500-page reference detailing 1,600 animals with 2,000 photographs and descriptive text is not only the most comprehensive visual field guide to marine invertebrate life inhabiting the waters from Thailand to Tahiti, but also a pictorial tour de force skillfully bridging science and the aesthetic. The text focuses on mobile species, highlighting crustaceans, mollusks, worms and echinoderms, however the pages include an overview of attached marine animals, and also explore facets of marine invertebrate behavior.

The guide provides a boon of information for diving photographers, underwater naturalists and anyone known as critter hunters, who enjoy one of the most challenging games in the sea – searching for charismatic mini-fauna of the reef. Shrimp, Lobsters, Crabs, Squid and more!
