Imagelist
This resource was assembled to facilitate finding photographs of the North American moth species. It is made necessary by the fact that no single resource is available to show all of the identified species. It draws upon those rather few books that are (1) somewhat comprehensive and (2) available by purchase, or by using a good library, or (in a few cases) by going to the World Wide Web. These resources plus a rather comprehensive web site for images, provide access to a total of over 5,000 of the nearly 11,000 identified North American species. To see images of the others, you have to tediously search through the appropriate journals to find the papers in which individual species were originally described. Obviously, there is a great need to produce more comprehensive books and/or web sites showing those species.
Note: There are quite a few websites that (a) show many moth images and (b) are not duplicates of printed books. Some of the photos on these websites can be found by following links from my website called Web Images of North American Moth Species. Nearly all of the websites showing North American (and worldwide) moth species can be found by going to the Internet Resources page of the The Lepidopterists' Society website.
