Terence Archer 13th Aug 2016 | | BookVarious Authors - Dagsommerfugle I Farver | Although no credit information is mentioned, suspect that this is the Danish edition of the UK 1981 "The Mitchell Beazley Pocket Guide to Butterflies" by Paul Whalley.
Purchased a few years ago after spotting this butterfly in my back garden. Turns out to be quite rare here in Denmark. Known as Sørgekåbe(DK), Mourning Cloak(US) and Camberwell Beauty(UK).
