| Shield Bugs of the British Isles |

Shieldbugs look somewhat like beetles but have sucking mouthparts instead of mandibles and their young (called nymphs) pass through several moults, becoming more like adults at each stage.
This 8-panel laminated fold-out chart includes colour illustrations of 45 shieldbugs and a table of identification characteristics. Coverage includes the families Acanthosomatidae, Cydnidae, Scutelleridae, Thyreocoridae, and Pentatomidae, as well as the 'honorary shieldbugs' from the family Coreidae. In this guide species have been grouped by appearance and where the nymph is distinctive it is shown as well as the adult.

Bag a bargain... I have quite a few of my own books currently for sale on Amazon. Most are books that I purchased while at university and tend to be archaeological or historical in nature. I need to clear some shelf space hence the sale. I also have some old graphic design books and 'how-to' type computer books.
