| Butterflies Calendar, Wall, Pomegranate
Presenting insects from the tropics, Christopher Marley introduces us to twelve of the known 150,000 species of butterflies (up to 250,000 species remain undescribed). The images reveal the insects' showiness - used for communicating or to indicate their inedibility to predators. The soothing blues of Africa's African blue swallowtail and Peru's cracker butterfly (Hamadryus) and the vivid purple of Siluin, the giant blue from Papua and Indonesia, only hint at the range of color and pattern inherent in nature. This 2006 Wall calendar was published by Pomegranate.
