retail price is 65$ for Atlas of dragonflies and 75$ for List of Odonata

these are rare and unique books - normally not found else where, otherwise at much higher price.

Dear friends and fellow collectors !

please be informed that the book "Beetles of Thailand" has been re-printed on Aug 2008. as I remember, many of you have already obtained the 1st Edition from us before.

this New 2nd Edition has been greatly updated:

* new layout, new design - photos are much better than in 1st Edition,
and are situated in the same fashion as in book "Butterflies of Thailand",
on the right page of spread.
* also there are a lot of new other species added, comparing to the 1st Edition: before there were 362 species, now there are 509 species & subspecies
* and of course, many corrections has been made in species descriptions


size 247 X 180mm (about 7 X 10 inches)
weight slightly over 1.5kg (3+ lb)
495 pages which include 199 color plates (pages)
A LOT of nice quality photos, live size or even enlarged !
size ranges and multiple pictures of each species

It is published in Limited Edition, 4000 copies only, which makes me believe that it will finish VERY SOON - based on experience that the 1st Edition (2002), printed in the same number, has been sold out very quickly and became bibliographic rarity, although demand for still remains quite high during last 5-6 years since its publishing in 2002 !

please let me know if you are interested !

please inquire for Shipping and payment options,
for retail price or wholesale discount

best regards
Alex

Another update:

there is now new (well, since my first post here smiling smiley ) Volume 5 of Moths of Thailand, it is dedicated to Notodontidae moths family

so, all together now there are 5 Volumes of Moths of Thailand

Volume 6 is coming soon


the following books prices now has been considerably reduced:

1) "Moths of Thailand" in 5 Vols
2) "Butterflies in Thailand" in 6 Vols
3) "Lucanidae of Thailand"
4) "Tiger beetles of Thailand"
5) "Atlas of dragonflies in Thailand"
6) "List of Odonata from Thailand"

it is possible to buy single separate volumes instead of full sets - because perhaps some of you might be interested only in some particular Butterflies / Moths family and do not need all other volumes, but rather would prefer to have only 1 or 2 of them. so, please inquire !

here are a bit of details about each Volume:

"Butterflies in Thailand" in 6 Vols

Vol. 1 : Papilionidae & Danaidae. 92 color plates.
Vol. 2 : Pieridae & Amathusiidae. 44 color plates.
Vol. 3 : Nymphalidae. 84 color plates.
Vol. 4 : Lycaenidae. 36 color plates.
Vol. 5 : Hesperiidae. 40 color plates.
Vol. 6 : Satyridae, Libytheidae & Riodinidae. 44 color plates.


"Moths of Thailand" in 5 Vols

Vol. 1 Saturniidae ; 47 pages and 44 color plates
Vol. 2 Sphingidae or Hawk moths 149 pages, 44 color plates; 176 species
Vol. 3 Noctuidae 261 pages with 44 color plates
Vol. 4 Lasiocampidae 205 pages with 24 color plates & 7 pages of drawings

one more book never mentioned before:

"Cicadas of Thailand", Vol. 1
+ 1 audio CD with Cicadas' sounds
by Michel Boulard

present book describes 74 species of Thai cicadas.
22 pages with color plates
Softbound (paperback)

some photos are truly unique and amazing: like series of photos showing the whole process of Imagination (Imago hatching or emerging young winged specimen) !

there are plenty of hand drawings as well !

this is very nice interesting book with plenty of info interesting facts !

also it has enclosed Audio CD with 40 professionally made highest quality sound tracks of different Cicadas "tymbolizing" (not singing or stridulating as commonly misunderstood !); also there are "Acoustic ID cards" for each sound track - a diagram showing sound frequencies !

oh, by the way : I see that so far I haven't mentioned it here before, even though it has almost been completely sold out !

there is also another relatively New book, "Butterflies of Thailand" (please notice slight difference in its title: it is "of" instead of "in" !)
this book is authored by Mr. Pisuth Ek-Amnuay, who has also written book "Beetles of Thailand"

this book is UNIQUE : it has ALL Butterflies species in one same single volume !

Series "Fascinating insects" Volume 2, Butterflies of Thailand,
Published in December 2006
ISBN 9742891869
Hardbound, book size 175 X 245 mm (7 X 10 inches) , weight 2.2 kg

all together 868 pages, including 388 color plates of 1291 different species, 10 Families of butterflies. (with brief guide)

THIS BOOK WAS PRINTED IN LIMITED EDITION 1500 copies ONLY
and due to its definite many advantages (all species in 1 Volume, better photos, more species, easier to use, finally price-wise it is cheaper than to buy all 6 Volumes) - it has been SOLD OUT very fast !

NOW WE HAVE ONLY LAST FEW COPIES LEFT, hardly 10+
AND IT WILL NOT BE RE-PRINTED ANYTIME SOON !
(not sooner than another 6 months, may be even 1 year)
because author has just published his new re-print of "Beetles of Thailand" 2nd Edition and till it is successfully sold out there is no chance that book "Butterflies of Thailand" published again in bigger edition !
