Literature about butterflies

Here you find a listing of all specialized books concerning butterflies. These books helped me to extend my knowledge over butterflies.

Unfortunately are specialized books generally expensively and partly difficult to get. Without exact knowledge of titles, author or publishing house a success is not guaranteed. I made the experience that the specialized books are either very simple or very specialized.

If you look for a book that offers a broad overview of the butterfly families and related topics, then the selection becomes already very small.

I hope to be helpful with this small book list all that one, which is on the search for knowledge over butterflies.
