This book is an exhaustive yet readable study of the intricate ecology and behaviour of British beetles, particularly those that live in freshwater. The author, a renowned entomologist, draws on extensive research and his own field observations to create a scientific and thoroughly engaging account of these fascinating insects. The author systematically classifies and describes species, but the book is much more than a field guide. It explores the roles and interdependencies of beetles and other wildlife in the aquatic ecosystem, and the book discusses the effects of habitat changes, such as pollution. The book also includes enlightening chapters on beetles' biology and life-cycles, making it a well-rounded introduction to this important ecological group.
