AVAILABLE AT THE END OF THE YEAR OR EARLY 2026. DISCOUNTED PRICE AVAILABLE UNTIL THE RELEASE
"METAMORPHOSIS I," the first volume of the new two-volume series that will replace "Gli insetti di Fly Line," is in print. It will be the 5th volume in the SUPERFLY series.
"METAMORPHOSIS I" deals with the systematic determination of the order of mayflies and will be released in January 2026.
The second volume, "METAMORPHOSIS II," will cover caddisflies and stoneflies and will be released in about a year.
Compared to the out-of-print "Gli insetti di Fly Line," METAMORPHOSIS I will feature an updated systematics (the two works have been separated by twenty-three years), new photographic images (except where it was not possible to replace certain shots due to their rarity or exceptionality), new, broader, more rational, and simplified dichotomous keys, and will remove aspects of little significance for both the fly fisherman and the professional user. The connections to fly fishing have been expanded with additional fishing information, links, and references to the other books in the SUPERFLY series dedicated to imitations.
The cover features the painting "Metamorfosi," which I created way back in 1997.
