Yet many people take hese remarkable insects for granted, few ealising that there are around 160,000 different pecies of buttertly and moth across all corners f the globe. Their lives are dominated by the onstant struggle to survive in a world which eems filled with hungry predators, and the mazing adaptations which enable this survival esult in the diversity which is clearly illustrated ere.
