What is Butterflies of the World about?

<p><i>What does a moth with a foot-long wingspan eat?<br> How far back do butterfly fossils date... 30 million years or 130 million?<br> And, why do Norwegians, Alaskans, and Manitobans see polar fritillary butterflies only every other year?</i></p> <p><b>Butterflies of the World</b>, by distinguished lepidopterists Saverio Forestiero and Valerio Sbordoni, answers these questions and many more. It is the most comprehensive volume on the subject.</p> <p>Not simply a listing of species by illustrations, this book offers a fresh approach.
