Occasional Publications

From time to time the Society publishes volumes about various wildlife-orientated topics. These are usually issued free to members at time of publication.
Copies may also be purchased here at our online shop. The Society has been producing Occasional Publications for more than 20 years on subjects ranging from birds to dragonflies to grasshoppers to trees.
Several of these have proved to be “best-sellers” and are no longer available in printed form, but the Society plans to make some of them accessible in PDF format in the future.
