Language: Japanese with English and scientific nomenclature
An expanded and revised version for the first time in about 14 years. The number of species treated here has increased significantly to 280 species, and all feathers have been photographed anew, all in full size. The authors and publisher have paid particular attention to the colour tone and print, to allow you to understand the beauty and sophistication of the wings.
