Butterflies and Moths of North East England.

Please click on the links below for information on the butterflies and moths that are found in Northumberland, Durham and Teesside. The link for moths is to an external web-site which includes the text (macro moths only) from T C Dunn and J D Parrack's 'The Moths and Butterflies of Northumberland and Duham' published in 1986 by the Northern Naturalist's Union. This book, although now over 20 years old, is the standard work on moth distribution in the region. Although out of print, the book, which also includes distribution maps, may be accessible through various local libraries.
