Explore Spiders of India, by Karthikeyan S., bridges the gap between the comprehensive scientific works and inadequate popular literature on the subject. It is meant to encourage people to look at spiders and learn more about them. This book is meant to help those starting to look at spiders, develop a healthy inquisitiveness towards nature, and understand the importance of respecting and protecting nature and our environment.

Description

Spiders abound in almost all terrestrial habitats, including our homes. Spend a little time observing these 8-legged wonders, and you will appreciate their fascinating adaptations and skills to live, survive and thrive.

Unlike many other faunal groups, the information available for field identification of spiders is limited. Explore Spiders of India is an attempt to bridge the gap between inadequate popular literature and detailed scientific works. With an emphasis on easy field identification using visual cues and general characters, this handy guide will be invaluable for both amateurs and arachnophiles as well.

This pocket guide covers 20 families and over 100 genera that are found in natural habitats, gardens, and even at homes. We hope that this book will instil an appreciation of spiders in readers and encourage them to explore the wonderful world of these arachnids.
