Description:
London: Poyser, 1991. xii, 209, text figs, line drawings. . HB. Vg in d/w (spine slightly faded).. Original edition. Illustrated by Ian Willis. The ruff offers an extreme example of a social system widespread in birds and other animals; brilliantly plumaged males compete on communal display grounds or leks for the attention of the more drab females.
