Description
Hoverflies: A Comprehensive Guide to their Biology and Identification. This Naturalists' Handbook provides in-depth information on the natural history, biology, and identification of hoverflies, with a focus on those commonly found in the British Isles. Clear illustrations and detailed descriptions support practical guidance for identifying species, as well as advice on research methods and techniques. The book delves into the life cycle of hoverflies, from their colourful larvae that feed at night to their adult forms, which visit flowers and engage in courtship behaviour. A selection of 42 species is featured, with colour pictures and critical characters listed for identification purposes.
