The Entomologist’s Companion is a comprehensive guidebook for collecting micro-lepidoptera, written by Henry Tibbatts Stainton and originally published in 1852. The book is focused on providing detailed information on the collection of British Tineidae, a family of small moths known for their delicate appearance and intricate wing patterns.The guidebook is divided into several sections, each of which covers a different aspect of collecting and identifying micro-lepidoptera. The first section provides an overview of the various tools and techniques used in the field, including information on how to set up a moth trap and how to properly preserve specimens for later study.The second section is devoted to the identification of micro-lepidoptera, with detailed descriptions and illustrations of the various species found in the British Isles. This section includes information on the physical characteristics of each species, as well as their habitat preferences and behavior.The third section of the book is a calendar of the British Tineidae, providing information on when each species is most likely to be active and where they can be found. This section is particularly useful for collectors who wish to plan their expeditions based on the time of year and location.Overall, The Entomologist’s Companion is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the collection and study of micro-lepidoptera, providing detailed information on the tools, techniques, and species found in the British Isles.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
