Over the past fifty years, the butterfly population in Germany has declined by more than eighty percent—a stark and harsh fact. Prominent German biologist and author of numerous popular books, Josef H. Reichholf, analyzes the reasons why butterflies are facing extinction in his homeland. Pesticides, excessive fertilization, and monocultures are turning species-rich meadows, where colorful butterflies once fluttered from flower to flower, into a thing of the past.

However, Josef H. Reichholf does not merely paint horror stories of an impending ecological catastrophe; he also guides us into the wonderful world of butterflies. A fairytale-like abundance of color, surprising behavioral traits, and skillful adaptation characterize these beautiful insects, which the author captivatingly introduces while showing how every reader can make their own small contribution to their survival.

Reichholf, Josef H.
