Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

A marvelously illustrated guide to the world’s moths
With more than 160,000 named species, moths are a familiar sight to most of us, flickering around lights, pollinating wildflowers about meadows and gardens, and as unwelcome visitors to our woolens. They come in a variety of colors, from earthy greens and browns to gorgeous patterns of infinite variety, and range in size from enormous atlas moths to tiny leafmining moths. Moths of the World is an essential guide to this astonishing group of insects, highlighting their remarkable diversity, miraculous metamorphoses, marvelous caterpillars, and much more.
- Features hundreds of breathtaking color photos of moths from around the world
- Covers anatomy, evolution, life cycle, behavior, ecology, and conservation
- Profiles species from every major family, showcasing their endless variety of sizes, colors, shapes, and fascinating life histories
- Discusses habitats, distribution, and hostplant associations
- Written by a world-renowned expert
A Guide to Every Family is a richly illustrated series covering some of the world’s most fascinating organisms, using a family-by-family approach wherever possible. Each book explores key topics such as anatomy, evolution, habitats, and lifestyle, and includes profiles of selected species to reveal the remarkable breadth of characteristics, appearance, and behavior across genera and families. Stunning color photographs, distribution maps, tables of information, and compelling species accounts combine to make this series irresistible for anyone interested in natural history at the global scale.
"Moths are incredibly appealing insects, but they are not the easiest taxon to become familiar with. This book makes huge strides in that direction."---David Gascoigne, Travels with Birds More
