Produktbeschreibung
In this expanded and revised edition of Sea Stars of British Columbia, originally published in 1981, Philip Lambert describes 43 species and subspecies of sea stars in the coastal waters of northwestern North America. Lambert has expanded the geographic area to include the region from Glacier Bay in southeastern Alaska to the waters of the Strait of Juan de Fuca and Puget Sound in northern Washington.

The sea star fauna of this region is the most diverse of all the temperate waters of the world. The great age of the Pacific Basin and the varied habitats along this complex coastline have stimulated the evolution of many forms. Lambert lists 26 additional species that live below 200 metres and 14 others that occur just outside the region covered by this book.
