This beautiful book continues the Ozark Society Foundation’s nature
series created almost forty years ago and is the first time that
all of Arkansas’s rich population of butterflies and moths has been
written about. Most of the butterflies and moths in this guide are
found throughout the eastern United States and parts of the western
states. Lori Spencer facilitates species identification by
presenting detailed text entries alongside lavish, full-sized
photographs.

The book includes 263 species descriptions and more than 300 color
photographs, among them shots of larvae. General information about
butterfly gardening and prime butterfly locations is also included.
Spencer discusses each species’ life cycle, survival, anatomy, and
behavior, as well as presenting collection of specimens. Maps break
down the regions—and hot spots—where they are found. The guide
features an extensive glossary and three indexes listing common
names, scientific names, and caterpillar host plants.
