Watching and ‘ticking’ butterflies is a rewarding hobby and
one that is gaining popularity in South Africa. This handy
pocket guide details more than 250 of the region’s 670
species, from the tiniest blues and coppers to enormous
swallowtails and emperors. The most commonly encountered
butterflies are included, but there are also a few elusive
‘specials’, for those who enjoy a challenge. The book offers
• Concise text describing the habits, favoured habitat and
early life stages of each butterfly (egg, larva and pupa)
• Details of seasonal and other variations
• Similar-looking species and status information
• Full-colour photographs and distribution maps
• Colour-coded calendar bars, showing at a glance when a
particular butterfly is most abundant.
This handy little guide should prove invaluable to
beginners and more experienced butterfly enthusiasts alike.
