Description
For the first time, Australian orthopteroid insects are documented comprehensively.

The book covers the classification, biology and ecology of Australian orthopteroid insects. It discusses identifying features, collecting techniques, culture methods and preservation techniques.

The accompanying Audio CD includes sounds from more than 130 species. It is the only comprehensive recording of these insects available and includes first time recordings for most species. Full documentation of all recordings is given including common and scientific names.

Reviews
"The book itself, when one manages to pull oneself away from the CD, is marvellous."
Dan Johnson, E.S.C. Bulletin S.E.C.
