Octavo green cloth hardcover 238 pp. Very Good with former-owner signature and light foxing; in a Very Good dust jacket with edgewear that includes light chipping. With 425 line drawings and 283 illustrations in color. From dust jacket: This authoritative and finely illustrated guide to the most common and conspicuous butterflies in Africa is the first book of its kind. The region covered is Africa south of the Sahara excluding Madagascar. Out of more than 2400 species of butterflies -- many of which the tourist or amateur collector is not likely ever to see -- John Williams has chosen 436 which are most frequently encountered. For every species the text provides detailed information about size distinctive colors and patterns important for identification or for distinguishing the sexes or related species and notes on distribution within Africa habitat flight habits and food plants. The scientific name of each butterfly is given as is the English common name whenever this is well established. Every butterfly is illustrated with a line drawing beside its descriptive text. Two hundred eighty-three species are also illustrated in color with key characters noted on the legend pages opposite each plate and page references back to the descriptive text.
