This first comprehensive guide to all 68 spider families in North America beautifully illustrates 469 of the most commonly encountered species. Group keys enable identification by web type and other observable details, and species descriptions include identification tips, typical habitat, geographic distribution, and behavioral notes. A concise illustrated introduction to spider biology and anatomy explains spider relationships. This book is a critical resource for curious naturalists who want to understand this ubiquitous and ecologically critical component of our biosphere.SpidersNorth AmericaIdentificationArachnidaNorth AmericaElectronic books.SpidersArachnida595.4/8097Bradley Richard Alan1051617Buchanan Steve853048American Arachnological Society.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910463027803321Common spiders of North America2482250UNINA
