DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Tiger Moth is one of the major aviation success stories in the history of British aviation. Developed by Geoffrey de Havilland and flown for the first time on October 26 1931, the biplane became the most important elementary trainer used by Commonwealth forces. More than 1,000 Tiger Moths were delivered before WWII, and subsequently around 4,000 were built in the UK with an extra 2,000 being manufactured in Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Following the end of WWII, pilots could buy and modify a Tiger Moth for recreational use or agricultural crop spraying and use it relatively cheaply. This, combined with its popularity within the aero club movement, provided employment for the Tiger Moths until the late fifties when the more modern closed cockpit aircraft began to force them into retirement. This new edition provides a comprehensive account of the aircraft's origins and its development as a trainer of Commonwealth pilots in times of peace and war. It also looks at some of the other roles which this versatile little aeroplane performed such as a crop duster, glider tug, aerial advertiser, bomber, coastal patrol plane and aerial ambulance. Technical narrative and drawings, handling ability and performance as seen through the eyes of the pilots combine to make The Tiger Moth Story the most comprehensive book of the aircraft.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKMoths of the family Arctiidae, with their brilliant coloration, spectacular courtship rituals, and bizarre defenses, are wonders of the natural world. Unpalatable by virtue of secondary chemicals acquired from their hostplants, these moths advertise their defenses by their coloration and often mimic butterflies, wasps, bees, stinkbugs, and even cockroaches. They have ears with which they hear the echolocation of bats, and some answer with aposematic warnings, while some may jam the bats' sonar.This book, the first written on this fascinating group, documents how tiger moths and woolly bears-the adults and larvae of the Arctiidae-flourish in a world rife with predators, parasites, and competitors. The contributing authors' accounts, each written by a recognized expert in the field, weave together seminal studies on phylogeny and behavior, natural history, chemical communication, mate choice and sexual selection, chemical ecology, parasite-host relationships, self medication, animal orientation, predator-prey interactions, mimicry, adaptive coloration, speciation, biodiversity, and more.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe present book is a monographic treatment of tiger moths, the Arctiidae, of the former Soviet Union. In covering most of the Palaeartic fauna, this publication is unprecedented both in scope and scrupulousness. Numerous colour pictures and several drawings richly illustrate the more than 100 species and subspecies referred to in the book. Identification keys are mainly based on peripheral characters, although in several cases genitalic ones are used. Many full colour photographs show pinned specimens (mainly arranged in 24 plates) and also a variety of live moths and/or their characteristic habitats. Professor Vladimir Murzin (born in 1927), a nuclear physicist and Doctor of Physical Sciences, developed an interest in butterflies and moths during his childhood. Today, his collection of Lepidoptera is one of the largest privately owned in Russia. He is a member of the Russian Entomological Society, and is the author of several scientific and popular-science books concerning butterflies and moths and of more than 20 other publications covering ecology and entomology. He has made approximately 50 collecting trips to various parts of the former Soviet Union where he has discovered several new species and subspecies of butterflies and moths.
