Lynx Nature Books

[1] Since 2002, the company has been based in the Bellaterra district of Cerdanyola del Vallès.Lynx Nature Books publishes the Handbook of the Birds of the World, a 16-volume series completed in 2012 that documents for the first time in a single work an entire animal class, illustrating and treating in detail all the species of that class.An updated two-volume set with taxonomic revisions was released in 2020 as the Illustrated Checklist of the Mammals of the World, and a condensed, single-volume version of the series was published in 2023 as All the Mammals of the World.As a complement to the Handbook of the Birds of the World, and with the ultimate goal of disseminating knowledge about the world's avifauna, in 2002 Lynx Edicions started the Internet Bird Collection (IBC).This was a free-access, online audiovisual library of footage of the world's birds which hosted videos, photographs, and recordings illustrating various biological traits (e.g. subspecies, plumage, feeding, breeding, etc.)
