This is a great book. It contains hundreds of color images of moths, and it is well written and well organized. I did not find any misspellings or misidentifications. Along with the other volumes of this set, it would be ideal to teach young lepidopterists the moth fauna of Europe. For advanced lepidopterists, it still offers a lot of valuable and new information. I highly recommend this book to buyers. It is hardbound and well constructed, so should be able to withstand years of heavy use.
