African Butterflies Are Even More Interesting Than You Could Imagine?

Thursday, October 11, 5:00 pm
FREE

Dr. Torben B. Larsen has devoted much of the past 
20 years to the study of Africa?s 4,000 butterfly 
species. Most species make their home in the 
rapidly shrinking rainforests of the continent, 
although surprisingly very few have gone extinct. 
Using color images interspersed with some of the 
more light-hearted episodes from his travels in 
25 African countries, the author of "The 
Butterflies of Kenya and Their Natural History" 
and "Butterflies of West Africa" will tell us 
about some of the most interesting, surprising 
and amusing aspects of the African butterfly fauna.
