Still a fundamental work for the study of Neotropical plants and animals, Biologia Centrali-Americana is an encyclopedia of the natural history of Mexico and Central America. The entirety of the 215 part encyclopedia has been digitized and made available in the Biodiversity Heritage Library.
You can also find many images from Biologia Centrali-Americana in our Galaxy of Images under subjects like “Butterflies and Moths,” where we found this one. The Biodiversity Heritage Library’s Flickr page also has oodles of butterflies.
