A comprehensive and richly illustrated field guide to the mammals of the Western Palearctic.

'An excellent, useful guide.' – BBC Wildlife

Fully revised and updated, this major work presents all species that occur in the Western Palearctic, serving as the perfect field guide to the great diversity of mammals in the region. This new edition presents 86 new species, including 40 cetaceans, and reports on the latest scientific advances and taxonomic changes.

Species accounts are concise and authoritative, giving information on size, distribution, habitat, behaviour, reproduction and feeding. Each account is supported by distribution maps and superb colour illustrations. The book features over 125 plates, comprising more than 650 colour species artworks. Variation between the sexes is illustrated, and anatomical diagrams including tooth arrays are provided to assist identification.

Field Guide to Mammals of Europe, North Africa and the Middle East is the only guide you’ll need to identify any mammal across this vast and diverse region.
