You most probably already heard about the forthcoming Guide for Marine Mammals of the World, A & C Black, London? The guide is illustrated with c. 400 photos and 130 plates by the artist Brett Jarrett (the same artist that painted my Antarctic Wildlife Guide, 2002).
Are you a professional marine mammals observe/researcher who has worked on some cetaceans and also has nice images of Pygmy Sperm Whale, Franciscana and Amazon [Freshwater] Tucuxi? A list of additional species required is below.
We credit photographers and the publisher pay fees for the use of the images
and we can give you copy of the book.
Can you please email me high res. of such images, thanks! If you can email them to me in the next few days (or the very latest before the end of the month) I might use them. It is extremely important to have good selection of
such rare species.
The book is now in the last page proofs stage and I will appreciate your swift respond on that issue.
Thanks, hope to hear from you soon. Please try to respond as soon as you can.
Thanks,
Hadoram (the Author)
