Produktinformationen "Moths"
Mothsis a definitive introduction to the biology, lifecycle and natural history of this crucial insect group, which encompasses over 160,000 species. Moths are among the most ancient of Earth's inhabitants, with some fossils believed to be 190 million years old. Lepidopterists David Lees and Alberto Zilli demonstrate the incredible diversty of these winged insects and reveals some of their ruthless survival tactics - including blood-sucking moths, cannibalism in the cocoon and carnivorous caterpillars. They also explore their extraordinary life cycle, charting the development from egg to larva to cocoon to airbourne adult, as well as the surprising variations of colour and wing patterns that have evolved in moths. Fully illustrated with photographs, diagrams and artwork demonstrating the latest research, this book offers an expert insight into the the major group of night-flying lepidoptera.
