About this book

Language: Japanese with scientific nomenclature

This is an identification book to 115 of the 180 species of ladybirds inhabiting Japan. Identification points are described in-depth with composite photos, including, for some species, eggs and larvae. A comparative illustration of the copulatory organs is included for the difficult-to-recognize family that the Japanese call "Himetentou". Next to showing ladybirds, this book contains tips for collecting and observing.
