- Summary:
-
"The Australian Capital Territory is a treasure trove for naturalists, despite being without a coastline, without rainforest or without deserts. A wealth of biodiversity is found there, due to the close proximity of three major habitat types: the great western woodland grassy plains bump up against the inland edge of the coastal hinterland mountain forests, while the whole south-eastern Australian Alps system reaches its northern limit in the Brindabella Ranges. Each of these habitats has its own rich suite of plants and animals, so a great diversity of life can be found within an hour's drive of Parliament House. ... introduces the fauna, flora, hatibtats and reserves of the Australian Capital Territoty, including the most recent research available. It also emphasises often unappreciated or even unrecognised urban wildlife."--Back cover.
