A Naturalist's Guide to the Spiders of Borneo is an easy-to-use, introductory identification guide to 280 most commonly seen spider species in Borneo, described at species or genus level. Perfect for residents and visitors alike. It is aimed at helping to create more awareness and interest in Borneo's spiders – they are not hard to find, and there are probably more unknown than known spiders out there to study.

A Naturalist's Guide to the Spiders of Borneo contains:

The author's high-quality photographs of spiders in their habitats also show images of the opposite sex where available.
Accompanied by concise species descriptions, which include nomenclature, length, habitat and distribution.
User-friendly introduction covering geography and climate, whether Bornean spiders are dangerous, what spiders are, spider life history, observation & identification, where to find spiders, spider names and a glossary.

Wong Tsu Shi lives in Sabah, north Borneo. He is a keen nature photographer, specialising in the spiders, insects and birds of Borneo. His works have been used by various magazines and publications. He is currently a member of the Malaysian Nature Society-Bird Conservation Council Records Committee, which assesses rare bird records for Malaysia.
