There are over 650 British beetles not included in Norman Joy's "Practical Handbook of British beetles". Some of these are new arrivals from the Continent or farther afield. Several formerly rare species have recently increased and some doubtful species have been confirmed as occurring, or having once occurred, in Britain. Others have been confused with other species or overlooked and many groups have undergone taxonomic revision. "New British Beetles" puts these changes into perspective, and offers the British coleopterist a new look at Joy's book, a reference to the current British fauna and the changes that have taken place. Currently out of print but may be possibel to find via libraries or second-hand book suppliers.
