Four kinds or species of Clothes Moths, two k…inds of HOuse Moths . occur in the British Isles. Although other species are occasionally stated to cause damage, they are of less importance, and it is not proposed to deal with them here.

All these of these insects are of relatively small size, and in wing-expanse even the largest female Brown House Moth." Book has light wear to corners. Shelfwear to covers and page edges.
