In New Zealand, the introduced species outnumber the native species. This second edition field guide examines the diverse and fascinating ways these species have established themselves and adapted to co-existing in the foreign environment. All species are set out in a standardised form for easy reference, and include accounts of measurements, distribution (worldwide and in New Zealand), habitat, social organisation and behaviour, reproduction and development, predators, parasites, diseases, and their significance to the New Zealand environment.
