It is difficult for me to comment the contents of these books, as most of them are only written in chinese language

I would be interested to see any other books, members would have about  the butterflies of Taïwan ?

That is a very nice collection. I am sure many here will find your post of great interest. A very good idea to show a selection of books from one fauna region. Thanks for sharing.
