Insects
Welcome to British Insects on Flickr. What I am hoping to achieve here is some very detailed coverage of the groups I am most familiar with (bees, aculeate wasps, various fly families, dragonflies and some bug and beetle groups). Using Flickr I have placed images and information into the public domain often in a way that will complement the published literature and other web resources for those groups. Because of the hierarchical way in which Flickr is structured (when in 'collection view'), this site can easily be hyperlinked to other sites or publications at order, family, genus, species or photograph level, which can be incredibly useful. Good general guides to the insects of Britain include the following: A comprehensive guide to Insects of Britain & Ireland by Paul D. Brock (Pisces Publications, 2014, ISBN 978-1-874357 The Royal Entomological Society Book of British Insects by Peter C. Barnard (Wiley-Blackwell, 2011, ISBN 978-1-4443-3256-8 Insects of Britain and Western Europe: 3rd Edition by Michael Chinery (Domino, 2012, ISBN 9781408179482)
