Résumé
An introduction to the methodology is followed by the main body of the book describing the climate risks to butterflies in each of the families Hesperiidae, Papilionidae, Pieridae, Lycaenidae, Riodinidae, Libytheidae, Nymphalidae and Danaidae. Methodological limitations, and the outlook for butterfly conservation are discussed. There are corrigenda to this book in BioRisk No. 2 (2009).
