Description
'A remarkable field guide ... one of those books that come along every now and then and cause a revolution.' - Michael McCarthy, Independent
This concise guide is a companion to the main Field Guide to the Moths of Great Britain and Ireland by the same expert authors, but is in a condensed form with artwork opposite the species descriptions and lay-flat binding for ease of use in the field.
It includes brief but comprehensive field descriptions of all the macro-moths in Great Britain, Ireland, the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands, and this second edition has been thoroughly revised and updated to reflect the latest advances in taxonomy.
Featuring more than 1,700 superbly detailed colour artworks and covering nearly 900 species, this portable guide is an essential addition to every moth-lover's field kit.

An invaluable field companion that should promote and aid interest in recording moths both for general interest and biodiversity/habitat monitoring purposes.
