DESCRIPTION
Previous books on indian butterflies have been almost entirely concerned with their identification. They dealt with them as objects to collect rather then as living breathing animals. They provided excellent though sometimes complicated keys for the proper recognition of the butterflies after they had becom specimens for the store boxes,but told little of how these interesting and attractive insects lived.
