Guide to the Butterflies of the Palearctic Region - Nymphalidae part III is the third in the 'Guide to the Butterflies of the Palearctic Region' series to cover the Nymphalidae. This volume deals with the Subfamily Limenitidinae, Tribe Neptini.
The systematics of the Neptini butterflies have not much been investigated and has undergone very little modifications. Among the few new contributions, the most significant are an exhaustive revision of the Neptis pryeri species-group and some interesting new findings about Chinese and Himalayan Neptis taxa.
About the 'Guide to the Butterflies of the Palearctic Region' series
This is a series about the butterflies of the whole Palearctic, from North Africa and Europe to China and Japan. Each volume of the series will cover 80-100 species with full colour illustrations, genitalia drawings, distribution, taxonomy, variations and diagnostic characters. Many well-known lepidopterists worldwide are contributing to this project, with the final result being a series of booklets with each one covering a subfamily, a tribe or a group of genera with a total of 50 to 100 species. It is anticipated that, when completed, this series will comprise over 30 volumes of work covering the Satyridae, Papilionidae, Pieridae, Nymphalidae, Lycaenidae, Hesperidae, and other families.
