About This Item
Quito, Ecuador: C.I. Artes Graficas Cia. Ltda., 1982. Soft cover. Very Good. Former copy of Professor Udvardy (mailing label on FFEP) and inscribed on July 4, 1983 by the Director of CDRS. Minimal wear except for sunned spine. 210 x 279mm, graphs, charts, tables, line drawings and BW photos. 8 1/4 x 11", 353 p., Minor wear to edges of the wrapper. The interior is solid and unmarked. A compilation of 22 articles reporting on research projects carried out in the Galapagos Islands. Topics range from investigations on birds and reptiles, botany and geology, climate and the marine environment. With the exception of one article, all the originals were published in English and have been translated here to Spanish. In addition, 36 extra illustrations have been included that relate to the Galapagos but were not part of the original articles. In her preface, the editor mentions a map to be included showing the places where the projects were carried out. I don't find this map. Either it was omitted at publication or it was since lost.
