Keeping and Breeding Butterflies & Other Exotica
The purpose of this book is to provide the basic knowlege required to breed and care for a wide range of insects.
There is an emphasis on butterflies and the life details of some 80 species are included, but there is also practical information on keeping and breeding scorpions, stick insects, praying mantis, locusts and large spiders.
There is a particularly important chapter on the care and rearing of leaf cutters, fascinating south american ants which depend for their existence upon a fungus that they cultivate themselves.
