Fills a void in the marine ecology of the Gulf of Mexico as there has been nothing previously written about this area.
The accessible writing style of the book and its stunning color imagery will be very appealing to many readers of all ages that are interested in nature and coastal environments. The book describes everything well without being overwhelmingly technical.
The iconography parts are very useful for identification of mollusks. Pictorial overviews of the environments are an especially good idea.
Many people from overseas visit Florida as tourists each year: the book can and most probably will draw attention of the international visitors to a poorly explored corner of Florida wilderness.
Compliments the previous two books published by the authors through CRC Press in 2020 and 2021: Tropical Marine Mollusks: An Illustrated Biogeographical Guide ISBN 9780367636388 and Ancient Seas of Southern Florida: The Geology and Paleontology of the Everglades Region ISBN 9780367566333.
Dr. Petuch has spent his lifetime working on Caribbean and Florida mollusks. His background and vast knowledge of the subject makes him a very appropriate author.
