The 81 remarkable colour plates depict typical views of each butterfly, as well as their egg, caterpillar and chrysalis. The plates have been produced using the latest digital image technology and include many images that have never previously been published.

The text covers the key identification features of each species, emphasising the differences between similar species, and includes information on behaviour, habitat requirements and population and conservation. Colour distribution maps accompany the text for each species.

The innovative, easy-to-use format aims to help the butterfly watcher identify any species they encounter, whether they are a beginner or an expert.
