	Here's a bit of info on this book:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYSTEMATICS OF WESTERN NORTH AMERICAN BUTTERFLIES: the book is supposed to
be out in December '98. Only 1000 copies are to be printed and shipping
to purchasers will be in January, 1999.  The cost is $75 + $4.95 s/h.
It may be ordered from:

Mariposa Press, Inc.

Gainesville, Florida 32605

Payment by check or money order only, thus no phone or credit card orders.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

	I have not seen the book, but from what I have heard about it, it's
what is sometimes referred to as a 'non-book'--that is, a collection of
papers on different topics by different authors. It is not an attempt to
provide complete coverage for classification of all species of western NA
butterflies. At least some of the papers may be a bit controversial--
although that depends on to whom you are talking... 

	I have no information about the illustrations.
