The Butterflies of the United States - vol 1

The Butterflies of the United States – Volume 1
A Japanese-Language Illustrated Introduction to U.S. Butterflies

This beautifully laid out hardcover book introduces readers to the butterflies of the United States through rich photographs and approachable commentary. Written entirely in Japanese, it is designed for a Japanese audience interested in North American butterfly fauna.

Rather than functioning as a field guide or technical reference, this book blends visual appeal with informative storytelling. The volume includes:

• Essays and commentary comparing U.S. butterflies with familiar Japanese species

• Dozens of color photos of butterflies in their natural habitats, all taken in the wild

• A spotlight on unique behaviors, such as hilltopping and warning postures

• Features on endemic species and regional diversity, including butterflies of deserts, coasts, and alpine zones
  

Written in a personal and engaging tone, the author shares field experiences from across the U.S.—from California and Texas to Florida and the Pacific Northwest—making this book as much a travelogue as it is a butterfly guide.

📘 Note: This book is written entirely in Japanese, and is intended primarily for readers who can understand the language.
