Illustrated with 198 plates in full colour, this comprehensive record of no less than 780 species is unique in the world of Lepidoptera. Most of the butterflies are depicted life-size. There are also superb reproductions of 38 hand-painted life cycles of Hesperiidae by Gowan C. Clark, the renowned natural history artist and Lepidopterist. The text includes known distributional records, field observations, times of appearance, amongst other interesting data. A detailed index provides easy access to all species. An accurate botanical list of known foodplants utilized by larvae of these butterflies broadens the scope of this volume. Family, genus, species and author of every plant are tabulated against each insect. Scientific abbreviations of titles of journals and other publications cited are listed separately with expanded titles appended. A large fold-out map and select bibliography complete the contents. PENNINGTON'S BUTTERFLIES OF SOUTHERN AFRICA is a valuable and essential reference work in the field of natural history of Southern Africa.".
