Pseudoscorpions
Introductory chapters cover Structure, Reproduction, Ecology, Distribution, Collection and Preservation. Although one chapter title includes "Preparation", there is no information on this. There is a dichotomous key to adults, followed by species descriptions which each start with a drawing of the whole animal, followed by decriptions of structure and distribution, drawings of taxonomic features and a 10KM distribution map.
