In this unique book on butterflies, all stages of butterfly development and the entire surrounding microcosm, the whole range of relationships that make up the living environment of these insects, are considered as a whole. The famous German artist Johann Brandstetter, in collaboration with the biologist Elke Zippel, shows the diversity of butterfly habitats - meadows with poor soils, raised bogs and swamp meadows, highlands, floodplain forests, tundra, taiga, the far north of Eurasia, tropical rainforests, edges and meadows with high herbage, arable fields and others, as well as the diversity of the butterflies themselves, anticipating the story with a brief introduction to the basics of taxonomy. The appearance of butterflies, their life cycle, what they eat and where they live, how males attract females, what enemies butterflies have, how they defend themselves from attacks, and where, when and how best to observe them are described.
The book takes into account the most up-to-date data and scientific publications on the topic, and thanks to the stunning illustrations, the publication will be an excellent gift for true connoisseurs of beauty.
