Invertebrate ID

I really like this field guide as it gives you the common names, the most updated scientific names, and also the older scientific and common names. It is quite complete, and a must for a serious tide pooler in Calif. In addition, it also has a good representative section on algae, which many book seem to lack. It is also small enough to carry in the tide pools. I am a retired Zoology Community College Instructor and also a docent for the state parks, and consider this book a must have.
Perfect Guide To Tidepools
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
Out of the 3 books I purchased on tide pools for Northern California this has the most information. Works well with the other 2. Have enjoyed all of them. Has made exploring the tide pools so much more fun.
Good beachcomber resource

The photos in this book are incredible. I can't wait to take this to California on my next beachcombing experience. I like J. Duane's Sept's field guides. This is a good resource.
