"DeVries has written an extremely important work, possibly the best field guide available for any group of Neotropical organisms. It sets a new standard for butterfly guides."--Journal of the New York Entomological Society

"A fascinating and scholarly field guide of great value to collectors, naturalists, and professional biologists."--American Scientist

"DeVries' The Butterflies of Costa Rica is the most important book on tropical American butterflies to appear in the last 30 years. It is a significant scientific accomplishment and is a beautifully designed and produced book."--Association for Tropical Biology
