Butterflies are among the natural world's most colorful and intriguing creatures, so what could be more useful than a handy field guide with more than 1,000 photographs of all the butterflies of North America north of Mexico, including all true butterflies, the most common skippers, and many migrants and strays. The color plates are visually arranged by shape and color, and thumb-tab silhouettes provide a convenient index to identification of butterflies in the field. The species account for each butterfly provides measurements, descriptions of each stage of the life cycle, and information on coloring or distinguishing markings, flight period, habitat, and range.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Very informative book. Great pictures.
I bought this book after I found my patch of parsley in my herb garden being eaten by an anonymous caterpillar. I intended to use it as a reference tool to determine what caterpillars were eating my plants, to see if they were butterflies or moths and what other plants I had to keep an eye on.

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Easy, Speedy Butterfly ID
In Florida the butterflies are bountiful, greatly varied, and sometimes exotic. This wonderful layout and presentation of specific information has truly increased my enjoyment of our landscaping/gardening. Plus the book's size and vinyl cover work well on the lanai's small table!



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Excellent Butterfly Guide!
The book is so incredibly helpful. We had a butterfly festival at our community garden, and within a few minutes I was able to name all the butterflies we'd seen. I highly recommend this guidebook to anyone who's interested in butterfly watching.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Great field guide!
Though it took a bit longer than expected to arrive, i am very pleased. The color photos are great. Some times I wish it had the little map of the US to show the range of the butterflies, but this is not a big deal. Over all a great field guide.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - We are so pleased
The book is a wealth of information that we wanted, the ordering and delivery could not of been better.
