Media reviews

"[...]Taken together then, HBW16 is yet another outstanding book from Lynx Editions. It is a fitting end to this wonderful series. In actuality, however, it is not quite the end: in October 2012 Lynx will be publishing a supplemental volume, Special Volume: New Species and Global Index. Apart from an indispensable index covering the entire series, there will be several chapters on changes in macrosystematics and new species described after the publication of their respective HBW volumes, all of which will be illustrated with graphics and photographs.[...]"
