Guide to Marine Invertebrates of Valdivia 2001 by Carolina J. Zagal and Consuelo Hermosilla. This is the first detailed book for the identification of marine fauna of Chile and the first published by women. Valdivia, near the southern end of Chile has a diverse and interesting marine invertebrate fauna. This field guide is one of the best regional guides we have seen. Each species description is written both in English and Spanish for the local scientific and diver population. The authors have gone to much farther than most guides by providing an incredible user friendly format... The book covers 153 invertebrate taxa... is very well researched and contains 248 literature citations... Whether you want to visit this region or just want a well written account o the species occurring here for your library, this is a guide we definitely recommend.
