Re: must have books for Christmas

Just a few suggestions...

Colour Identification Guide to Moths of the British Isles (Macros)-Bernard Skinner. The standard moth book for most professionals.

British & Irish Pug Moths: A guide to their identification & Biology-Ade Riley & G. Prior. A good new book for this difficult group.

British Pyralid Moths-B. Goater. A very good book for these large Micromoths.

Insects of Britain & Europe-Michael Chinery. The Collins guide is a good general insect book.

Hoverflies-Alan Stubbs. Easily the most extensive hoverfly guide with colour plates & keys.
