Zustand: New. 352, 210 col plates. 297x210mm. HB. NEW. . Text Japanese/English. This is the third volume of the series, 'The Life Histories of Asian Butterflies', with detailed descriptions and colour photos of the life histories of 194 species. The work of the late Dr Igarashi (1924-2008) has been completed by his student and field researcher, Motohiro Harada. Highlights include:- Ludlow's Bhutan Glory (Bhutanitis ludlowi), one of the most mysterious swallowtails which was re-discovered from Bhutan in 2011. The early stages of this species are illustrated and compared with three allies in this genus.- Comparative study of the early stages of Two "Kaisers" (Teinopalpus imperialis and T. aureus).- The early stages of rare and interesting species such as Achillides syfanius, Papilio sikkimensis and Polyura dehanii.- First description of the female of Bibasis miracula.- Interesting morphology of the egg of Lethe gemina, a rare and peculiar Satyrid butterfly found chiefly in Chinese area.…

About 20,000 species of butterflies are estimated to live on the earth. However, the early stages are probably known only for about 1,000 species or 5% of all. Although this figure is very small, it is understandable if we realize that their ova, larvae, and pupae are not only small but are well-formed or adapted to hide themselves in nature. They are usually difficult to find, and even if found, it takes time and requires much care to breed them successfully. This painstaking task is often left untouched until the adults are studied and named, and only comparatively few people do really undertake this task. Needless to say, a tremendous amount of knowledge of ecology, philogeny, ontogeny, taxnomy, etc. is obtained by studying the early stages of butterflies. By elucidating the ecology of a butterfly species, not only studies of its fluctutation in numbers, changes in distribution, etc., but also the need for nature conservation including its habitat may be developed. There have been many examples of the elucidation of the taxonomic positions of butterfly species by the study of their larval stages. In some cases, even the errors in the classification based only on the adult forms have been corrected. Taxonomy in future must incorporate not only the traditional studies of adult wing coloration patterns, wing venations, morphology of genitalia, etc., but also the morphology of the early stages. The authors have paid special attention to the life histories of butterflies living in other regions as well. In the past 30 years, they have accumulated data on some 600 species in Asia to produce this volume based on one half of them. Numerous photographs and concise descriptions of the morphology from the ovum to the adult, ecology, and foodplants have made it into a source of information unrivalled with any other concerning the life histories of Asian butterflies. Three years passed after the publication of Vol. 1, and in the meantime the authors have compiled this second volume, which contains 380 species, to complete the series. Although the number of species covered in this series is far from being satisfactory for the entire butterfly fauna in Asia, the coverage at the generic level is considerable; therefore, together with the knowledge reported for Japanese butterflies (only a few species of which are described in this series), the two volumes will provide a general view of the life histories of Asian butterflies. Due to the limitation of space, the authors had to exclude many species for which all stages of life histories have been elucidated. Also amongst such species on which only fragmentary information was obtained, only peculiar notable ones were included. Of course, commentaries were added in descriptions of closely related species of some of those excluded. For the species undescribed, the authors will seek other opportunities of publication in the future. Tokyo. Tokai University Press.
