The Macro-moths of Warwickshire A 2026 Review

A book to celebrate exactly 20 years since the publication of The Larger Moths of Warwickshire in 2006, during which time many species have dramatically changed status. This review concentrates on moth species which have displayed significant changes in distribution and abundance throughout this period. Over 40 new species have been added to the county list, and detailed records are provided, in addition to updated records of uncommon and immigrant species. The book concludes with a classified checklist of all species recorded in Warwickshire since Victorian times, giving current status, followed by an appendix containing distribution maps showing records since 2006.
