Butterflies of North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, and Georgia book announcement

[Jeff Pippen]

Fellow Lep Enthusiasts,

Harry LeGrand, Jeff Pippen, Derb Carter, and Pierre Howard are excited to announce the pre-sale of the brand new UNC Press book titled Butterflies of North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, and Georgia: A Field Guide, expected to hit bookshelves in June or July!

In addition to having introductory text on butterfly biology, habitats, observing/photographing, etc., the book will feature ALL butterfly species known to have occurred in the region. Each regularly occurring species will have a two-page spread (species account) with text (identification, similar species, distribution, abundance, flight period, larval and nectar plants, and miscellaneous helpful comments) on the left-hand page. The right-hand page will feature photos, county distribution map, and a special Key Field Marks highlight box. 

As a special bonus, you can receive a 30% discount by entering the promo code “01SOCIAL30” (without the quotes) at the following UNC Press webpage: 

https://uncpress.org/book/9781469678566/butterflies-of-north-carolina-south-carolina-virginia-and-georgia/ 

NOTE: the link has a View Inside, so you can view up to 138 pages of this 456-page book. However, the facing pages on the View Inside are backwards, so that the left page is really a right-side page in the book; a given species has its species account on the left page and the facing page in the book, on the right, are the photos, map, and field marks. 

While being slightly south of MD, I expect this book will be useful for many folks along the east coast!

Regards,

Jeff, Harry, Derb, & Pierre

And of course will make a VERY compelling reason to come to the Carolinas!
