All species are depicted in detail in mostly original drawings by the senior author. More than 50 maps show the world-wide distribution of every species. Descriptions are accompanied by a complete bibliography and synonymy, providing an indispensable source of information of any worker on this interesting group of animals, professionals as well as advanced students.
