Description:
Isolated Mountain Ranges with snowy peaks and desert plateaus, forests of various types and semi-desert savannah produced a specific and unique butterfly diversity. Many endemic species, especially Lycaenids, are found in Iran. This book covers the 413 species currently known in this region. Specimens of almost all species are shown on the plates (c. 5000 photos) including many type specimens, historical and very rare examples. The bibliography section consists of 830 entries including many Iranian publications which are little known in the West.
