“The contributions in this edited volume constitute a highly practical guide to obtaining critical information about imperiled butterflies and strategies for implementing their conservation. … each chapter is focused on a particular aspect of butterfly conservation, or is a case study of the conservation of particular species or a species in a specific geographic region. … This book is a must for anyone contemplating direct engagement with butterfly conservation activities.” (Chris Nice, The Quarterly Review of Biology, Vol. 91 (3), September, 2016)“The book accomplished the goal of providing a framework for butterfly conservation and management efforts. … useful for groups interested in identifying ways to best participate in these efforts. For readers not familiar with specific issues associated with imperiled butterflies, the focus on practical applications and numerous case studies provide an excellent starting point for developing relevant programs. Overall, the diverse expertise and experiences of the authors provide an important resource for practitioners interested in butterfly conservation and management.” (Kristen A. Baum, The Journal of Wildlife Management, Vol. 80 (5), July, 2016)“Each chapter is referenced independently and also includes a summary of key points discussed. … book fulfills its promise of delivering practical advice to advance butterfly conservation. It is informative and also refreshingly free from excessive ‘jargon’ … . I hope that it will indeed be read widely and its content heeded in planning further conservation efforts for butterflies across North America.” (Tim R. New, Journal of Insect Conservation, Vol. 19, 2015)
