The new Moths and Butterflies  of Britain and Ireland app for the iPhone platform is now available!  The app, developed by Birdguides Ltd in conjunction with A&C Black and UKMoths is based on Chris Manley’s “British Moths and Butterflies – a photographic guide“, and features additional content from the UKMoths website and distribution maps from Butterfly Conservation’s National Moth Recording Scheme.

Covering a total of 2,147 species of lepidoptera found in Britain and Ireland, the app features stunning photos of most of the British micro and macro-lepidoptera (including butterflies), along with a selection of larvae, pupae, eggs, leafmines and other feeding signs.
