Coastal Invertebrates of Victoria by D.A.B. Phillips is a 1984 Australian reference guide that opens the tide-pool worlds of southern Australia to nature lovers, students, and beachcombers alike. Packed with clear illustrations, the 168-page volume makes it easy to identify the crabs, molluscs, worms and other spineless wonders found along Victoria’s rocky and sandy shores.

The book’s compact paperback format slips neatly into a day-pack for field trips, while the concise text and labelled drawings serve amateur marine biologists, teachers planning coastal excursions, or collectors seeking accurate names and habitat notes. Phillips, a member of the Marine Research Group of Victoria, focuses on local species, giving the guide lasting value for anyone interested in Australia’s unique marine biodiversity.

This second-hand copy shows gentle edge wear and light scuffing to the covers, plus a faint corner crease on the first few pages—honest signs of use that leave the interior clean, unmarked, and firmly bound. From a smoke-free home, it is ready for its next reader to explore Victoria’s shoreline life without the distraction of library stamps or previous owner notes.

Ideal for young adults, naturalists, or professionals building a regional reference shelf, Coastal Invertebrates of Victoria remains a trusted companion for seaside holidays, citizen-science projects, and classroom ecology lessons.
