Moths of Borneo

The Moths of Borneo is a major part work production, estimated to run to 18 volumes. It covers all the 'macro' moths recorded from Borneo, currently estimated at some 4,500 species, all of which are illustrated in colour. Twelve parts have already been published, with six more to come.

The work has been undertaken by Dr J D Holloway, a Research Associate at the Natural History Museum, London, who has been working on the subject for more than 20 years.

As a result of contacts with Universiti Sarawak Malaysia, ARBEC and The Natural History Museum, London as well as the ASEAN Regional Centre for Biodiversity Conservation (ARCBC) headed by Dr John MacKinnon, it was decided to put the whole work online. So far volumes 3 and 1 have been put online. The remainder of those published will follow shortly. Volume 3, which includes the popular groups, Sphingidae (Hawk Moths) and Saturniidae (Emperor Moths) will be available free as a sample until further notice. The remainder will be by subscription.
