Now this is a wonderful looking book 😍 Superbly laid out, clear and concise. It even has a little checklist in the index 😁 Bravo @gailashton and @DominicCouzens, this will sit proudly amongst my other insect books 🥳 My own Rosemary beetle approves 😅 #InsectWeek #InsectWeek22

Look out for marbled white butterflies at this time of year. Their distinctive black and white pattern makes them easy to identify. You'll mostly find them on unimproved grassland. #InsectWeek22

Tiger moth mating frenzy! 😍 Comms officer Pete went for a #30DaysWild walk, and along one 100-yard stretch of foothpath found dozens of these beautiful scarlet tigers flying excitedly around and coupling up - and one extremely exhausted-looking individual! 😂 #InsectWeek22

We featured Trichoptera from Curtis earlier in the week but today we focus on Coleoptera in ‘British entomology being illustrations and descriptions of the genera of insects found in Great Britain and Ireland...’ by John Curtis, 1862. In 16 volumes. #InsectWeek22 #EntHist
