The Comoros Archipelago is a true natural paradise full of unique species and ecosystems with new species discovered and described regularly. Unlike many similar tropical oceanic islands, this hotspot of biological diversity remains virtually unknown to the global community. A group of three biologists, we had the privilege of studying the islands as our private 'playground' of natural history. At the same time, we saw that many of the unique species living there are threatened by extinction. We would like to share the extraordinary discoveries we made there with the people living on the archipelago and with the global community of tourists, scientists, and enthusiasts and raise awareness for the need of preserving this fragile ecosystem. - The first field guide on the fauna of the Comoros Archipelago - Bilingual - English and French - Photos and descriptions of at more than 300 species
