No other book in print covers the British species of the family Pyralidae, which includes such familiar species as the Mother of Pearl, the China-marks and the Grass Moths. All 208 species are clearly described in the text and all are illustrated photographically in the 272 figures on the colour plates, showing sexual dimorphism and different colour forms. The text gives a concise description of each species and its more striking races or forms, aided, where necessary, by line-drawings. Information is included on life histories, habits, seasonal occurrence, geographical distribution and host-plants. There is also a check list of the British Pyralidae.

Librería: Fieldfare Bird and Natural History Books, Taunton, SOMER, Reino Unido
Hardcover. Condición: Very good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very good. First Edition. This is still the only book in print to cover the British Pyralidae in any detail, and remains the definitive guide for the serious student of this group. There are 8 colour plates of set specimens, depicting both male and female where these differ, and also some variations. There is also a colour frontispiece with photos of 12 species in their natural resting positions, part of which is reproduced on the dust jacket. The text is quite comprehensive, and for each species gives a description, pointing out the more salient identification pointers, though this is in quite technical jargon and can be difficult to interpret for the inexperienced. There are cross-references to similar species, and further details about distribution, larval habits and foodplants.Presently, this is the only book in print to exclusively cover the British Pyralidae, and therefore is still a great buy for the serious British moth enthusiast.
