A New Book on British Moths & Butterflies:

Hi all,

if anyone was thinking "why do I need a new moth book, after all I have
loads", please do check out the new book on British Moths and Butterflies by Chris
Manley.

I got mine today, for about £13 delivered, and just ordered it as I buy nearly
all new moth books anyway. It was a really pleasant surprise. it contains, to my
amazement, photos of all macro moths (well, 850 species), all butterflies but
also 500 species of micro-moths (micros).

This gives a really good chance of anyone getting into micros, putting moth
id's to family, and maybe even to species level. The photos are of the highest quality.
My only real gripe is that a hardback version seems unlikely.
