5.0 out of 5 stars
a mammalogist bible,
By the Penguin (Israel) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mammal Species of the World. A taxonomic and geographic reference. 2nd edition. (Smithsonian Series in Comparative Evolutionary Biology) (Hardcover)
without doubt Wilson and Reeder's book is THE source of information for people looking for mammals in museums and old scientific publications. the superb listing of synonyms, the listings of the scientist describing the clades, and the brief biogeographic notes makes this book invaluable for people having any taxonomic question. The main attitude seems to be one of splitters, giving a lot of specific names to various populations others consider a single species, the biogeography can be a little more detailed, but there is no other source with that thoroughness and completeness in mammalian taxonomy.I'm anxiously waiting a new edition
