THUMBNAIL INDEX FAMILIES

Proposed classification of the Lepidoptera by Ebbe S. Nielsen & Ian F.B. Common

Butterfly classification follows Micheal F. Braby "The Complete Field Guide To Butterflies of Australia, 2005". I also used Micheal F. Braby "The Complete Field Guide To Butterflies of Australia, 2005" as a guide, when I made the distribution maps (butterflies only). As they are not copied, shown distribution might differ slightly from the original maps in the book.

At this stage most photos on this web site are of macro lepidoptera. All photographed lepidoptera are collected by the author and is part of his collection.
