This book was released on 2014-01-28 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With over 40,000 described species, spiders have adapted to nearly every terrestrial environment across the globe.

This beautifully illustrated, accessible guide covers all of the families and many of the genera found along the Pacific Coast, including introduced species and common garden spiders. The author provides readers with tools for identifying many of the region’s spiders to family, and when possible, genus and species. He discusses taxonomy, distribution, and natural history as well as what is known of the habits of the spiders, the characters of families, and references to taxonomic revisions of the pertinent genera. Full-color plates for each family bring to life the incredible diversity of this ancient arachnid order.
