Welcome to Daves Moth and Butterfly World -
Lepidoptera Species List: Visual Index of all Species on Website

Welcome to Dave McCormick's Moth and Butterfly World. Here is a thumbnail list of all the butterflies and moths on this website.

On this page you will find images depicting the amazing variety of moths and butterflies I have been lucky enough to take photos of and create pages about them. Clicking on any of these images takes you to a page dedicated to that species, describing it's lifecycle and behaviour, forms, subspecies and more and the page has thumbnail images and when clicked, you see a full sized image with information on that image. I still have a long way to go to getting all species I have good enough photos on, as species pages on this website.

Any bold text under an image on this page is a note on that species page the image is linked or going to be linked too.

If you see any issues with these pages, or have information on a particular species I could use, drop me an e-mail: dynamixware@hotmail.com , if you have information you think I could use, a reference on how or where you got information to insure its accurate might help.
