Butterflies and Moths (British)
William S. Furneaux
From the egg glued to a leaf to the moth at the lamp, Furneaux follows the whole transformation. This thorough handbook covers the life stages, the classification of the Lepidoptera, and the practical work of catching and keeping British butterflies and moths. A generous, illustrated companion for field and study. For the collector who wants depth as well as breadth.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
