Field Guide to the Moths of Great Britain and Ireland (2nd edition)

Description:

A ground-breaking field guide to Britain’s macro-moths, with superb artwork for the first time showing the moths in their natural resting postures, rather than as pinned museum specimens.

Comprehensive coverage of nearly every species of macro-moth that has been recorded in Great Britain and Ireland - including the Isle of Man and Channel Islands. 

More than 1,700 superbly detailed colour artworks of over 880 species, showing also various colour forms and subspecies.  More than 80 colour photographs of larvae.

Detailed texts for each species, including: field characters, similar species, flight season, life cycle, larval foodplants, habitat, status and distribution.

An ideal introduction to identifying and studying moths. This second edition contains additional illustrations and descriptions of species newly discovered in the British Isles since the original edition of 2003.

There are also further paintings of details and forms which will help in identification. The plates have now been grouped together for ease of reference. The text has been revised throughout to include new information on species distribution, and the field characters have been rewritten to include the latest information on identification techniques.
