[mygos]

Back from Juvisy Entomological Fair with a new book :

GALLARD Jean-Yves Les Riodinidae de Guyane

chez l'auteur, 2017, 191 pp., 67 color plates.

Text in French and English.

Available from the author for a price of 75 € ...

Very nice contribution to the knowledge of this difficult family of colorful butterflies from the tropics

This is not a revision of these jewels but more a catalogue of what the author living in French Guyane has observed, collected and photographed, resulting in this exhaustive iconography of 475 species classified in 83 Genera !

Congratulations to Jean_Ives G
It is a magnificent work. As Mygos observed, it contains an enormous amount of first-hand information from an entomologist resident in Guyane. It has excellent photos of specimens from the personal collection of J-Y G, beautiful photos of live specimens from nature, and many source location photos, much information on food plants and lavae, species history, etc, etc.
I recommend this beautiful work.

Hi jean-Marc,

I heard it was not a good idea to show email adress (and phone numbers) on public pages
