520 _a"It is easy to misjudge butterflies as fragile flying insects. Their distribution across a wild and expansive Pacific Ocean proves otherwise. Butterflies can fly thousands of kilometres. The South Pacific is a vast expanse of ocean with tiny island groups and scattered islands. From Kiribati, Tuvalu and Fiji in the west, to French Polynesia and Hawai'i in the east, this book surveys (and discovers) the butterfly inhabitants of these tropical islands. For completeness, and with a much larger land area, temperate New Zealand to the south is included. This outstanding and useful book describes and illustrates almost 100 butterfly species and includes almost 300 photographs of butterflies and their habitats." -- Provided by publisher.
