| Summary | "The Moths of the British Isles, Second Series" by Richard South is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This work focuses on the diverse species of moths found in the British Isles, specifically covering families from Noctuidae to Hepialidae. It aims to provide detailed descriptions and accurately colored illustrations of these moths, along with their life stages, such as eggs, caterpillars, and chrysalids, making it a valuable resource for enthusiasts and nature students alike. The opening portion of the book introduces the reader to the extensive scope of the series, indicating that it includes over 750 species of moths with a targeted focus on those appealing to nature study, while setting aside the less commonly appreciated Micro-Lepidoptera for future volumes. It features acknowledgments to contributors who provided specimen illustrations and identifies the various classifications adopted for the moths detailed in the text. As a prelude to the descriptions that follow, it emphasizes the ongoing evolution of scientific classification and nomenclature in the study of these insects, hinting at the meticulous approach South takes in documenting the captivating world of British moths.
