Spectacular work!
Thank you very much for making this book publicly accessible - it will no doubt serve as a valuable reference to many.
The photographs alone are wondrous, not to mention the detailed descriptive text!

Thank you for your compliments. Most of the work and all the text was originally written by Peter Smetacek, and much is similar to his 2015 first edition. I provided photos as credited and was heavily involved in editing Peter's taxon list at the end of the book as well as checking his text for errors. Maxim Markhasiov concentrated on improving the [/i]Parnassius[/i] part.
Adam.
