Verlag :: Bauer, E. & Th. Frankenbach, Butterflies of the World

An iconography of the butterflies with outstanding plates

All parts in large size 24 x 34 cm, all specimens shown in life-size (or enlarged).
When starting the series, we intended to show only a part of the butterflies, but many customers wanted the series to be more complete. We published a German (vol. 1 - 24 and 26) and an English edition.
The text is (very) short, but for some parts we have a more detailed text published as a supplement (text in French, German or English, one edition only). Part 8 and 23 are in German only.
There is a reduced subsriber's price if you buy part 1 to 32. Further parts will be supplied with a discount of 30%. Subscription can be cancelled at any time. Subscription is only possible if you buy all parts that are already published.
