This handy identification guide for caterpillars of macro- and micromoths living and feeding on oaks in central Europe summarises characters that are visible to the naked eye or under low magnification, an approach not previously applied to these specialized larvae.

The book contains over 1,200 photographs and original descriptions of more than 240 species. The caterpillars are outlined and illustrated with an emphasis on distinctive features. Brief information on the bionomics, distribution and significance of each species is also included.

Although the fauna specific to the Mediterranean Basin is not the main focus of this book, most species, particularly the most representative ones, are also found there. Indeed, the Western Palaearctic region, which includes Western and Central Europe, is remarkably homogeneous from southern Scandinavia to the mountains of North Africa.

The book will also assist in identifying numerous caterpillars found on other forest and fruit trees, as many that live on oaks are polyphagous. Caterpillar-like larvae of sawflies that develop on oaks are briefly introducedas well.
