About this book

This book brings together the work of the last 20 years on the biology of Australian butterflies. It presents reviews of taxonomy, biogeography, ecology and behaviour. A series of single species studies has been included to illustrate the range of butterfly life-histories from the simple to the highly complex. Contributions from most of Australia's eminent professional butterfly specialists are included in the work. While the work is a professional reference, the serious amateur will find much of interest.

Contents

Part 1 Introduction to the Species: History of Australian Butterfly Research and Collecting; Higher Classification of the Butterflies; Evolution and Characteristics of the Australian Butterfly Fauna; Biogeography - Distribution and Spatial Patterns at Global Continental and Local Scales. Part 2 Species Accounts. Part 3 Ecology, Behaviour and Evolution: Food Plant Selection and Use; Communities of Butterflies; Rare Butterflies and Theories of Evolution and Ecology.
