"This book addresses butterfly species, conservation and management of butterfly habitat, and hands on advice for butterfly aficionados to use in their own backyards. It even includes a recipe for a medium for raising butterfly larvae in captivity" --Wildlife Activist"This book provides a broad survey of the science of insect and butterfly conservation and the rationale for conserving both. Most of the book explores butterfly conservation and international efforts to safeguard species, including steps individuals can take to encourage and document butterfly conservation."--Entomological News"The first edition of this book was a landmark that presented a compelling case for conserving endangered butterflies throughout the world. The second edition adds and updates several case histories, and more fully presents current methodologies to facilitate scientifically sound conservation. . . . I came away from this comprehensive and useful book with a profound sense that our approach to conserving butterflies must shift from documenting dwindling numbers and engaging in last ditch firefights to promoting preservation of larger tracts of land in all terrestrial ecosystems. Butterfly Conservation is a sobering reflection of the global biodiversity crisis resulting from human usurpation of natural environments."--The Quarterly Review of Biology"This book summarizes the latest, and scattered, information on the conservation of butterflies and the rationale of insect conservation and the part that butterflies play in this. Along with discussing butterfly conservation, the book also covers the classification, diversity, and biology of butterflies. This edition of the work has sections on recent developments, and more references added. Maps, charts, diagrams, and line drawings supplement the text." -- Biosis, Vol 50, No 10, Oct 22, 1998, "This book addresses butterfly species, conservation and management of butterfly habitat, and hands on advice for butterfly aficionados to use in their own backyards.

Butterflies, whose fantastic shapes and beautiful colors have delighted entomologists and butterfly enthusiasts for decades, are the most extensively studied of all the insects. Yet, throughout the world, many populations of butterfly species have declined in recent years. Now fully updated with new sections addressing current research and new developments, such as the metapopulation concept of understanding butterfly populations and their management, this new edition of Butterfly Conservation provides a broad survey of the science of butterfly conservation. The book introduces butterfly classification and biology, and then goes on to discuss the causes of declining butterfly populations and current attempts to conserve particular species. This book will be important reading for all entomologists, naturalists, and conservationists., This book provides a broad survey of the science of butterfly conservation, together with a rationale for butterfly conservation., Many butterflies have declined in abundance during recent decades, and their conservation engenders concern and effort in many parts of the world.
