NEW ZEALAND NATURAL HISTORY AND SCIENCE
Drawings of New Zealand Insects
Desmond Helmore
Bulletin Number 8 of the Entomological Society of New Zealand.
A collection of 22 drawings of New Zealand insects by Des Helmore, one of New Zealand's most talented biological artists. His drawings have illustrated the Fauna of New Zealand series for many years, and he has contributed to many scientific papers and publications.
In addition to the exquisite black and white drawings, Helmore provides fascinating notes about the insects themselves and about the artistic and technical challenges they presented him with.
"Des Helmore's drawings supply the need for pictures of entire insects felt by many New Zealand amateurs and inter-disciplinary students, to an artistic standard few can hope to emulate" Sir Charles Fleming FRS
We have a limited number of copies signed by Des Helmore, for $50.00 each. Please contact us to check availability.
