Among the remarkable discoveries are a bizarre "blob-headed fish," a semi-aquatic mouse with webbed feet, and a variety of unique mammals, amphibians, and butterflies. With a rich tapestry of ecosystems spanning from the Andes to the Amazon, the Alto Mayo landscape is home to both untold natural wonders and urgent conservation challenges. This book unveils the extraordinary biodiversity of a region that has long been overlooked, revealing creatures that adapt in unimaginable ways and species that exist in the most fragile of habitats.
