Entomologist/artist Christopher Marley has spent many years in the remote environments where the world’s most beautiful bugs are profuse and extravagantly colored. His fascination led to a lengthy study of entomology and search for rare specimens. As a result, these cards are available as a perfect gift for anyone interested in insects.
Each of these 48 cards shows a dazzling insect on the front; on the reverse side is an informative description. From the comical goliath beetle, a lumbering creature so huge that it sounds like a tiny aircraft when in flight, to the iridescent Morpho rhetenor butterfly, the pictures and summary offer a stimulating glimpse into the amazing world of insects. Each card measures 3 1/4 x 4" and is coated heavy card stock printed from recycled paper. They are able to easily survive repeated reading or referencing.
