William Buckler's 9 volumes on the larvae of the butterflies and moths represented a monumental feat of artistry over nearly 30 years. Published by the Ray Society between 1885 and 1899, the 9 volumes cover the known British species of butterflies and moths at the time. Some of the nomenclature has since changed, but the species and life-cycle descriptions and the 164 plates of hand-coloured illustrations remain invaluable, although they are rarely seen.

All nine volumes are presented in Adobe Acrobat format on five CD-ROMs.
