It functions as an illustrated catalogue rather than a narrative or general-interest text. Extensive Species Coverage: The book documents a large number of Japanese butterfly species, organised systematically for identification and study. Colour Plates: It includes approximately 72 full-colour plates showing the adult butterflies in accurate, life-like colour. Figures and Line Drawings: In addition to the colour plates, the work features numerous text figures and line drawings (e.g., wing patterns, anatomical details).
