Description:
Almost all the illustrations are from hand-coloured illustrations, many are more than 100 years old, some as early as the establishment of the Linnean classification system over 250 years ago. 350+ species are illustrated on the colour plates. The authors have brought the scientific nomenclature up to the current classification status. Many species from these islands have never been illustrated in a consolidated book before, and this in particular makes this book invaluable for field work. Although not all species are illustrated, they are generally covered in the text.
This book is a must have for any serious student of Afrotropical butterflies.
