Butterflies of Cyprus

Meer over het boek

Covering a century of butterfly species in Cyprus, this illustrated reference and field guide highlights both the smallest butterfly in Europe, the Freyeria trochylus, and the newly introduced Papilio demoleus. It delves into the island's seven endemic species and provides insights into related species from the eastern Mediterranean. The guide features detailed distribution maps based on extensive records from nearly 300 contributors, particularly from the Cyprus Butterfly Study Group, along with citations and a comprehensive bibliography.
