This 8 page Identification Guide shows 103 day-flying moths - text and illustrations by Richard Lewington. Each chart is laminated to make it splashproof and robust for use outdoors. Clear colour illustrations and text by experts in the subject make these valuable resources for all age groups.

Once you start looking, the diversity of moths is fascinating, even in the most mundane of habitats. Although moths have a reputation for being drab and boring, many of the day-flying species are colourful. Indeed some are spectacular.

From burnet moths, tiger moths and footmen to clearwings, hawkmoths and the emperor moth, you should quickly be able to compile a varied list. Silver Y moths can be abundant in grassland, flitting between flowers with a hummingbird-like flight. Other common moths of grassy places include the Burnet Companion, Mother Shipton and Speckled Yellow.
