About This Book

This practical natural-history guide presents the life cycle of butterflies, methods for field capture, preservation and mounting (including the Paisley method), and techniques for rearing and conserving larvae and pupae. It describes the butterflies found in Britain with concise identification notes and plates showing adult insects and developmental stages, supplemented by photographic and coloured illustrations. Practical chapters explain egg and caterpillar recognition, setting and storage apparatus, and specimen preservation, blending hands-on instruction with observational natural history for amateur collectors and students.
