Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Very large octavo. xvi + 133 p., color frontis, 36 photomechanical color plates of adult butterflies, 12 halftone and line plates of aberrations, larvae, and pupae, 1 map. [Compared to the Complete edition, this Abridged edition lacks 7 halftone or line plates and the text has been reduced by about 114 pages.] 452 of the 471 color illustrations are photographs of specimens prepared using the nature printing technique called the "Wax-cum-Gum Method" of preparing double scale transfers from actual specimens, which were then photographed for the plates, while the bodies and antennae were painted by "unskilled draughtsmen"--the entire process is explained in detail by the author. Includes a Systematic List of species, and an Introduction with sections on the history of the study of Ceylon butterflies, classification, nomenclature, behavior, distribution, mimicry, and details on collecting and preserving specimens. Publisher's red cloth, gilt titles on front. Very Good condition except *spine missing*. Internally clean, bright, and tight, no marks except for prior owner's name stamped inside front cover. Corners lightly bumped, cover with a few small chips.…

Descripción de la tienda

Entomological Reprint Specialists (or ERS) was founded as a publisher and mailorder bookselling business in 1968. We started by reprinting out-of-print titles that still had a high demand because of their current utility. Soon, however, we diversified by becoming (at one time) the world's largest mailorder seller offering only books on insects and related arthropods. We continue to be one of the largest distributors for the Moths of North America series, but other sales are now limited to stock on hand and used or antiquarian items that come into our possession.…
