Table of Contents

Pictorial Table of Contents When you See an Unfamiliar Butterfly

Try to place it in one of the groups shown on the next four pages. Its shape, size, and behavior may be better clues than color

Refer to the page numbers or color tabs and go to that section of the book. Look for the pictures that match your butterfly most closely

Make sure the size is right. Always check the ""actual size"" figure in the upper right-hand corner of each plate

Check the range maps to see which species are likely
