"British Butterflies" by Alexander Morrison Stewart is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This work serves as both an instructional guide and an identification manual for butterfly enthusiasts, focusing on the various species of butterflies found in Britain, their life cycles, and methodologies for capturing and preserving them. The inclusion of vibrant illustrations aids readers in recognizing and appreciating these delicate insects. At the start of the book, the author discusses the essential differences between butterflies and moths, addressing typical questions posed by budding entomologists. He delves into the life cycle of butterflies, outlining each developmental stage from egg to caterpillar, pupa to mature butterfly, while emphasizing notable physical traits and behaviors of each stage that can aid in identification.
