Reviews / Votes
[T]his is unquestionably the finest local butterfly field guide ever produced. . . . In summary, I would suggest this field guide to everyone who has an interest in North American butterflies. Although it treats only the fauna of Indiana, its significance extends well beyond the boundaries of that state. If I were to write my dream field guide, it would surely resemble Butterflies of Indiana.(News of the Lepidopterists' Society)
