Promotional Details
"Catalogues of this kind are very helpful to those making revisions of a particular group of Lepidoptera, since they reduce the need to check sources in detail, as long as this has been thoroughly done. [...] Such a book will only appeal to curators and researchers into this group, but they will find it most useful." - David Agassiz, in: Entomologist’s Gazette Vol. 66 (2015), p. 288-289
"This catalogue treats five of the eleven families of Yponomeutoidea (a second part will deal with the remaining six). Taxonomic catalogues do not make compelling reading - but then, catalogues are intended for non-linear reference to information such as the names of taxa, author and date of description, taxonomic status and type specimens. They are perceived better as a component of taxonomic infrastructure. As with all competent catalogues, this one does much to propel us towards a better understanding of just which genera and species should be included in the target taxon." - Malcolm Scoble, Department of Life Sciences, Natural History Museum, London, in: Antenna 39 (3) (2015), p. 166
