Recenzii
"A must have for anyone with an interest in the Odonata of the region!"
"After almost two decades of research, odonatologist Klaas-Douwe B. Dijkstra and biologist Callan Cohen finally published the first Odonata guidebook of the Malagasy archipelago. . . an excellent primer for this insect group."
