Publisher's Synopsis
Key To The Land Mammals Of Northeastern North America is a comprehensive guidebook written by Gerrit Smith Miller in 1900. The book is specifically designed to aid readers in identifying land mammals found in the northeastern region of North America. The book is divided into two main sections. The first section provides an introduction to the classification and distribution of mammals in the region. It also includes a detailed description of the anatomy and physiology of these animals. The second section is the main body of the book, which contains the identification keys for each species of land mammal found in the region. The identification keys are organized in a hierarchical manner, starting with the order and family of the animal, followed by specific characteristics such as size, color, and habitat. Each key is accompanied by detailed illustrations and photographs to aid in the identification process. In addition to the identification keys, the book also contains a glossary of terms, a list of references, and an index of scientific names. Key To The Land Mammals Of Northeastern North America is an essential resource for naturalists, biologists, and anyone interested in the study of land mammals in the region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
