The types of plants and animals that live on seashores in temperate regions are similar around the globe, but many of the individual species in south-eastern Australia are found only in this region. Field Guide to the Seashores of South-Eastern Australia features colour photographs, descriptions and ecological notes for around 240 species of the more common plants and animals found on rocky, sandy and muddy shores along the coastline from Port Lincoln, South Australia, to the Hawkesbury River, New South Wales, and Tasmania. This guide will allow beachgoers to learn interesting details about the plants and animals they come across, while also having sufficient scientific detail for natural history enthusiasts and biology students to develop their understanding of these shore ecosystems.

"This book is an absolute delight. My only wish is that I had a copy of it earlier [...]. I highly recommend this book to anybody and anyone who is looking to learn more about Australia’s seashore species. A must have for the glovebox of a marine ecologist’s field trip vehicle, for the library at coastally located schools, and for the bookshelves of beach shacks across southeastern Australia, and beyond." -- Nina Wootton * Transactions of the Royal Society of South Australia *
