TABELL & SILOAHO - THE CASEBEARER MOTHS (COLEOPHORIDAE) OF NORTHERN EUROPE

The book introduces the reader to the world of casebearer moths and provides tips for finding them in the field. This group includes many species assessed as threatened, some of which have have very specific habitat requirements, making them an excellent group for assessing the conditions of different environments. The book presents the adults and larval cases of all 190 species recorded in Northern Europe. For each species, it describes characters, flight period, host plants, larval habits, habitats, distribution, possible conservation status, and important remarks, if needed. The larval cases are illustrated in plates, grouped according to their type (shape). The species are also listed according to their host plants. The book is entirely bilingual - English and Finnish. This book forms a pair together with the previously published "The Casebearer Moths (Coleophoridae) of Northern Europe - Genitalia".
