Butterfly field guides - south-east Asia (1 Viewer)

If I'd seen it for that price before I'd ordered the Malay one, I'd have gone for it. Is it much better than the Malay one? I'm in Malaysia soon. The furthest north I was on my recent trip was Khao Yai - where I saw surprisingly few butterflies - so presumably not many species will be missing.

Well it's far more comprehensive, it depends what you call better and tbh, I haven't got the Malay one for comparison.

Even cheaper here, post free

Thanks James, just ordered both. I've got a second hand version of the 2nd edition of the first - presumably not as good as the 4th edition, but I think includes most of the plates? About £30.

cheers, alan

This book (2nd ed) was too large and the plates too hopeless and not nearly comprehensive enough to be worth it - I haven't got the fourth ed. - I assume it is much better.

cheers, alan
