Subject: A very valuable three volume reference
Along with the other two volumes, this is an amazing work after Frederic Moore's work. As with many other works on the lepidoptera of India it took more than a lifetime to complete with authors passing away before it was completed. A lesson staring in the face for all those working on biodiversity documentation. Do we still not want to share work and allow others to build upon?
