The Fossil Butterflies Of Florissant is a book written by Samuel Hubbard Scudder in 1889. It is a comprehensive study of the fossilized butterflies found in the Florissant Formation, a geological formation located in Colorado, USA. The book includes detailed descriptions and illustrations of the various species of butterflies that lived during the Eocene epoch, approximately 34 million years ago. Scudder’s work is considered to be a landmark in the field of paleoentomology, as it was one of the first studies to provide a detailed analysis of fossilized insects. The book is still widely cited and referenced by scientists today and is considered to be an important resource for those studying the evolution of butterflies and other insects.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
