Rainforests of the World: Water, Fire, Earth and Air
- Ghillean T. Prance
This photogenic little arthropod is a cone-headed katydid (Copiphora sp.) from the Tambopata River region of Peru. It comes from the collection of plants, insects, animals and indigenous peoples photographed in Rainforests of the World: Water, Fire, Earth and Air, with photographs by Art Wolfe and text by Ghillean T. Prance (Crown Publishers, $45, £30) Containing more than 200 colour images, the book bears witness to the splendour and fragility of the rainforests, home to more than 50 per cent of the world's living species.
