Review

"When it comes to natural history field guides for the United States at the state level, no series ever published can even approach the California Natural History Guides for either breadth or depth of coverage." --"Well-read Naturalist"

From the Inside Flap

"Timing is everything, and with the reports of disastrous insect declines here and abroad, a book that introduces 'the little creatures that run the world' with clear prose and superb images is exactly what we need now to engage the public in insect conservation. Though it describes California species, the generality of this excellent field guide makes it relevant anywhere in North America."&;Doug W. Tallamy, author of Bringing Nature Home: How You Can Sustain Wildlife with Native Plants

"This is a much-needed guide to the larger and better-known insects of California, and it provides a great introduction to the field of entomology for a general audience. The authors pack an amazing amount of natural history in this compact treatment."&;Brian V. Brown, Curator, Department of Entomology, Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County

"This is the go-to reference for insect enthusiasts in California. A comprehensive and accessible guide, this book is the perfect thing to bring on hikes across the state!"&;Brian L. Fisher, coauthor of Ants of North America: A Guide to the Genera

"A brilliant revision of a great classic. Through canny choices, splendid images, and clear, concise text, the authors have wrangled a near-infinitude of diversity into an approachable subject for anyone with an interest in our most numerous neighbors. The introduction alone is worth the price. Both user-friendly and bottomless in information, Field Guide to California Insects is an essential reference for all West Coast naturalists."&;Robert Michael Pyle, coauthor of Butterflies of the Pacific Northwest
