Butterflies, Moths and other Invertebrates of Costa Rica

At the biological crossroads of the Americas, Costa Rica hosts an astonishing array of plants and animals – over half a million species! Eco-tourists, birders, and biologists come from around the world, drawn by the likelihood of seeing more than three or four hundred species of birds and other animals during even a short stay. To help all these visitors, as well as local residents, identify and enjoy the wildlife of Costa Rica, Carrol Henderson published “Field Guide to the Wildlife of Costa Rica” in 2002, and it instantly became the indispensable guide. Now Henderson has created a dedicated field guide to more than one hundred tropical butterflies, moths, and other invertebrates that travellers are most likely to see while exploring the wild lands of Costa Rica. He includes fascinating information on their natural history, ecology, identification, and behaviour gleaned from his forty years of travels and wildlife viewing, as well as details on where to see these remarkable and beautiful creatures. The butterflies, moths, and other invertebrates are illustrated by over 180 stunning and colourful photographs – most of which were taken in the wild by Henderson.There is a detailed and invaluable appendix that identifies many of Costa Rica`s best wildlife-watching destinations, lodges, and contact information for trip-planning purposes completes the volume.
