Over half of the world's spider families live within the three contiguous Pacific Coast states-not surprising considering the wide variety of habitats, from mountain meadows and desert dunes to redwood forests and massive urban centers. This beautifully illustrated, accessible guide covers all of the families and many of the genera found along the Pacific Coast, including introduced species and common garden spiders. The author provides readers with tools for identifying many of the region's spiders to family, and when possible, genus and species. He discusses taxonomy, distribution, and natural history as well as what is known of the habits of the spiders, the characters of families, and references to taxonomic revisions of the pertinent genera. Full-color plates for each family bring to life the incredible diversity of this ancient arachnid order. 606 $aSpiders$zCalifornia$xIdentification 606 $aSpiders$zPacific States$xIdentification 606 $aSpiders 610 $aarachnids. 610 $acalifornia. 610 $acolor illustrations. 610 $acommon spiders. 610 $acomprehensive guide. 610 $adesert habitats. 610 $aeasy to read. 610 $aentomologists. 610 $aentomology. 610 $afield guide. 610 $aforest habitats. 610 $alife sciences. 610 $amountain habitats. 610 $anatural history. 610 $anonfiction. 610 $aoregon. 610 $apacific coast. 610 $aregional spiders. 610 $ascientists. 610 $aspecies distribution. 610 $aspecies identification. 610 $aspider biology. 610 $aspider families. 610 $aspider habitats. 610 $aspider species. 610 $aspider taxonomy. 610 $aspiders. 610 $aterrestrial environments. 610 $awashington. 610 $azoology. 615 0$aSpiders$xIdentification. 615 0$aSpiders$xIdentification. 615 0$aSpiders. 676 $a595.440979 700 $aAdams$b Richard J$0248037 701 $aManolls$b Tim D$01689241 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910823448103321 996 $aField guide to the spiders of California and the Pacific Coast states$94064138 997 $aUNINA
