Guide to the butterflies of Britain and Ireland

Guide to the butterflies of Britain and Ireland is a compact identification guide illustrated by renowned wildlife artist Richard Lewington, depicting the fifty-eight British butterfly species most likely to be encountered, all painted at life size for accurate field identification.

A further ten or so species that occur in the British Isles but are too scarce to be seen regularly are also noted.

Designed as a practical companion for walks and fieldwork, the guide packs clear, detailed illustrations into a handy pocket format for quick reference.
