ID Guide to Garden Insects of Britain and North-West Europe is an introductory photographic identification guide to 150 species of garden insect commonly found in Britain and North-West Europe. Packed with information, written with huge enthusiasm and illustrated with incredible close-up photos, this guide shines a spotlight on the insects in your garden.
The introduction covers how to attract insects to your garden, the insect lover’s year, a description of the parts of an insect and details of the insect orders described. For each species there is a keenly observed description to help you identify even the smallest creature, as well as one or two photographs labelled with distinguishing features. There are details of its life cycle from egg to adult, a calendar showing the time of year when the adult can be seen and star facts that give further proof of insects’ fascinating lives.
