 Bees,
wasps and ants of Kent
is a new publication which presents information on the distribution and
status of 448 species of bees, wasps and ants – the aculeate hymenoptera –
which have been recorded in
Kent.
More than 440 distribution maps, drawn from a database of more than 55,000
records, show how the distribution of many species has changed over time.
Each map is accompanied by an individual account of the species, together
with information on synonymy and the species’ status in the UK and Kent.
Background
information is provided on aspects of the life history and behaviour of the
aculeate hymenoptera, and the book will provide a useful reference for those
with an existing interest in the group as well as those with a more general
interest in
Kent’s
natural history. The author, Geoff Allen, is Kent Field Club’s referee and
recorder for the aculeate hymenoptera. |
