Description
Connecticut Flora and fauna is the lavishly illustrated, exhaustive overview of the ecosystems of Connecticut, its plants and animals, and the ecological links some of the state’s Flora and fauna and their habitats–from butterflies to red foxes, jellyfish to double-crested cormorants, poison ivy to phytoplankton. It sparsely traces Connecticut’s day by day, seasonal, annual, and long-term cycles, which range from the dynamics of natural communities to patterns of reproduction and behavior in major groups of organisms. Whether having a look at individual species or broad ecosystems, Geoffrey A. Hammerson’s conservationist viewpoint shines in Connecticut Flora and fauna. The book will transform an crucial a part of the libraries of each and every naturalist, conservationist, and educator in Connecticut and the Northeast.
