Which is the best book to buy?

Which is the definitive ID book for the field?

I'm only recently getting "into" butterflys, and only have a "Collins Gem". What would be the best book to get, and where from?. I'd like a paperback that I can fit into my camerabag. Living in Spain, and a devout traveller, I want all of Europe covered.

Without doubt, for ID purposes, the best book is Tristan Lafranchis' book:

I tried logging on to the lopinga .com site but kept getting an error message. Have they moved web address or maybe stopped trading?

I think the reason for going directly to the distributor is that Amazon can take 6 weeks to obtain this item.

David Dunbar has some in stock. See
