Asia Pacific Reef Guide
by Helmut Debelius

Pages:  321
Format:  Hardback
RRP:  £25.99


Asia Pacific Reef Guide
Today the coral reefs of South East Asia harbour the greatest species diversity of all oceans.

This is true not only for fishes but also for invertebrates because the species from the coral world radiated from the triangle of the Philippines, Malaysia and Indonesia.

20,000 islands and innumerable coral reefs are located in that region where many new species are still discovered. This book focuses on the coastal fauna which most divers and snorkellers see first.
