CITES identification guide - butterflies : guide to the identification of butterfly species controlled under the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora = Guide...: CW66-192/2000-PDF
"Certain species of butterflies have become rare or endangered primarily as a result of the destruction of their natural habitat or removal of preferred food plants. In addition, excessive collecting of adults for personal collections has contributed significantly to the decline in numbers of these species, especially when specimens are collected on a commercial scale. Many other species of butterflies may become endangered for the same reasons, and therefore require protection from excessive exploitation"--How to use this guide, page ?-1.
