This is a field guide to the incredible wildlife at Lady Elliot Island, located at the southern end of Australias Great Barrier Reef.

It covers:

* The incredibly varied sea-bird life
* Most sharks and rays
* An extensive range of fish
* Many corals, shellfish, nudibranchs and other invertebrates
* Reptiles
* Common plants

Almost all species descriptions include several identification photos. The descriptions also include distribution maps. Along with information about distinguishing features, details of size, habitat preferences, diet and other details, this information provides an increasingly effective means of identifying species that can be found in Australia.

To use the guide, drill down though the species groups to find a group that you think is likely to contain the species you have observed. Then you can tap "filter" to see all identification images for species in the chosen group. You can refine the filter via the filter tab, selecting only those species that have the chosen colours. The required accuracy of the colour filter can be adjusted to refine or broaden the number of species that match your search. For groups with size and wingspan data, such as birds and rays, you can also filter based upon size and wingspan estimates.
