Field Guide to Bumblebees of Britain & Ireland Bumblebees are popular and well-loved insects. Yet, suprisingly, the majority of people know little or nothing about them. Over the last two decades, populations of some of the rarer species have seriously declined, and even the commoner ones are no longer as numerous as they once were. This has given cause for alarm since they are important pollinators of wild and garden flowers, fruit trees and some crops. Bumblebee populations have crashed for a number of reasons and we need to know more about these fascinating insects. This guide is for people from all walks of life and aims to create a greater awareness and knowledge of bumblebees.

Fungi Once regarded as simple plants, fungi are now thought of as a seperate kingdom, having diverged from common ancestors up to 500 million years ago. They occupy a key place at the base of the food chain and are of great economic and biological importance, but it is only recently that scientists have begun to realize their true ecological significance. The chapter on conservation gives an idea of just how vital it is to study and protect the habitats in which they thrive. This book is a wonderful resource for botanists and all those interested in fungi, suitable for the general reader or a student looking for background reading. The focus is on the larger fungi, those which have an obvious fuiting body. Roy Watling MBE, a respected mycologist who has written widely on the subject of fungi, sheds light on these intriguing organisms in a clear, accessible text illustrated with suberb colour photographs on every page.
