The Eastern Mediterranean fish field guide covers the most common fish species found in the Eastern Mediterranean, off the Lebanese coast. It presents a selection of 176 species spread across 89 families. The publication offers information summarising natural environments, behaviours, appearances, biology and The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species conservation status in the Mediterranean region.

L'attesissimo volume raccoglie i risultati di anni di ricerche floristiche sul Monte Baldo. 1240 pagine per un libro che documenta in modo unico le 1952 specie che sul Monte Baldo, in quello che corrisponde allo 0,2% del territorio alpino, rappresentano ben il 43% dell'intera flora alpina. Il volume, edito dalle Edizioni Osiride di Rovereto, è stato realizzato da Cassa Rurale di Brentonico e dal Museo Civico di Rovereto.

The Shouf Biosphere Reserve is the largest nature reserve in Lebanon. This field guide provides visitors with a broad introduction to the reserve and serves as a guide for hikers, bikers, nature lovers, students, and people escaping the crowded life of big cities. It sheds light on the remarkable biodiversity, beauty, and cultural heritage of the reserve and introduces the visitor to a more responsible and sustainable form of ecotourism.

The Encyclopedia of the Swedish Flora and Fauna is a project which will publish circa 120 volumes in the 20-25 years from 2005 onward. It constitutes a series of identification handbooks in Swedish. The 50,000 species which can be identified without highly advanced equipment will be described in detail, including information on distribution and biology. For most of them, distribution maps as well as illustrations e.g. watercolours will also be provided.

This book is intended as a simple guide to the identification of about 100 common and rare wild plant species in the UAE. These plants are illustrated in color and described in detail in order to help the naturalist or expert make positive identifications in the field. 

This book aims to answer questions relating to species introduced into the Macaronesian environment, including the Canary Islands (Spain), Madeira (Portugal) and the Azores (Portugal). It is a first attempt to present information regarding alien species in the European region of Macaronesia in a systematic way. A standard set of criteria was designed and applied to those species considered as naturalized and occupying natural and semi-natural habitats.
