Wonderful book given. as a gift

I liked this book. teaches you about the different types of butterflies, with pictures.

A nice book, I brought so I could look up the butterflies I saw at Stratford butterfly farm. Hardly any where in the book so not a comprehensive guide.

A great book, highly recommended. Full colourful pictures and interesting information.

A truly beautiful book and very good for confirming identification of butterflies

Well it's not really a reference guide, but what is. Lacking something as common as a black admiral, so not really a great deal of depth for some regions of the world. There does not seem to be a great reference guide available anywhere, however. Oops, my bad. It is the WHITE admiral, though generally seems to be almost black in the main, unlike the muddy brown shown in the book.

Bel libro lo regalerò a mio fratello che colleziona farfalle.Arrivato in anticipo !

Beautiful book filled with illustrations and so many varieties! I am not a specialist or knowledgeable at all on butterflies so I can't say if the information is accurate or relevant, but I was pleased to see both a section at the beginning about butterfly ''basics'' (anatomy, life cycles, feeding,...) and the rest of the book with specific varieties. I bought it as a reference book for art as I knew I would like to paint butterflies but I struggle to figure out which ones would fit better in my compositions. I would say this is perfect for this purpose as there's plenty enough varieties to look into and the colored illustrations are detailed enough to get accurate inspiration. I would say it's a ''quantity over depth'' kind of book as each variety has more or less half a page including the illustration, so the description can be pretty short. On a sidenote, most of the illustrations are drawings with the exception of actual photos for the ''basics'' section. I think I should mention this for people who are looking for photos only. However, I personally find the drawings to be very detailed and accurate enough for my own use. Gorgeous book to leave nearby for people to skim through as well! I would have loved it as a kid for sure.

Vale totalmente la pena

C'est un très bel ouvrage à posséder si on veut découvrir le monde des lépidoptères

This was a nice gift for a teacher who loves butterflies. The book was very good quality paper and beautiful colorful pictures.
