Native Spiders of Aotearoa

By Phil Sirvid

Part of the wildly popular Te Papa Te Taiao Nature Series, Native Spiders of Aotearoa is an accessible, handsomely illustrated guide to fifty of New Zealand's most interesting native arachnid species, most of which are endemic to New Zealand. Written by Te Papa entomology curator Phil Sirvid, Native Spiders includes curator notes on each species, insights into the museum's fieldwork and collections and detailed drawings by specialist illustrators. A beautiful little hardback designed by award-winning designer Tim Denee, it's an ideal keepsake or gift that can be used in the backyard or out in the natural world.
