A perfect copy. - Introduction: Nepal is well known for many forms of beauty, such as snowy peaks across lush valleys and picturesque villages or temples against vistas of range upon range of mountains. Its beautiful butterflies are less well known; partly because most visitors come during their off season and partly because many of them are hard to find, and some are extremely rare or local. It is the purpose of this booklet to introduce these most attractive members of Nepals fauna. Studying it will enable you to recognise the more striking butterflies you may see anywhere in the country. Note that this is not a mini field guide. To enable you to identify ALL of even just the Commoner butterflies of Nepal would take a much larger volume. But here you will find more. You will also see pictures of many rare and beautiful species that you are most unlikely to find in the wild, unless you spend much time here. This book assumes no prior knowledge of butterflies, and reading it will not make you an expert. But it will open your eyes to a wealth of hitherto unsuspected beauty to be found in nearly every corner of Nepal. Contents: I About Butterflies -- II About Nepal -- III Map of Nepal -- IV Nepal Butterflies: Swallowtails -- Whites -- Nymphalids -- Amathusids -- Browns -- Tigers & Crows -- Blues -- Erycinids -- Skippers -- V Appendix: Butterflies easily confused -- VI Index.

Missing the dust jacket. -- This book gives a glimpse of the sheer beauty and fascinating variety of the Himalayan butterflies. It should interest all true naturalists and ecologists as it attempts to show most of Nepal's butterflies in natural habitat. The need for a colour guide to the butterflies of Nepal has been urgently felt for a number of years; so rather than wait till all the species could be photographed in the field, other photographs of set specimens have been added to make this the most complete set of illustrations of Nepal's butterfly species yet produced. It gives pictures of 70% of the species, covering 90% of the genera found in Nepal. Great care has been taken to give accurate information as regards the classification and distribution of the species. Nearly all of it was amassed by the Author over 18 seasons of collection and study between 1966 and 1987, but all species known to have ever been seen in Nepal are included. This book should interest the scientists, students and the persons with a casual interest in natural history, or a wider interest in Nepal alike; but should prove absolutely essential to the field collector in Nepal.…
