R760.00

 

All pages very slightly yellowing: the book is unread. This book has been dropped – 5mm ding on head of spine and 2 on the tail. An attempt has been made to restore a 30mm & 65 mm tear on front hinge. Gilt titles on spine, butterfly on front : colour illustrations throughout book; maps as end papers. De luxe binding but out of sequence, un-numbered, signed by Dickson. 272 pages including index and bibliography. Does not cover ALL the Lycaenids but still an excellent book of reference. Truly a very thorough covering of vegetation preferences, habitats, distribution, colour variations and life cycles. Covered in archival plastic.
