"We love our beautiful butterflies, but we could love our moths, too, if we fully appreciated their essential role in nature. Moths and their caterpillars transfer more energy from plants to other animals than any other herbivores. A landscape without moths is a landscape without birds and many other animals. In Gardening for Moths, Jim McCormac and Chelsea Gottfried tell us how to bring these wonderful creatures into our landscapes and into our lives."--Doug Tallamy, author of Bringing Nature Home: How You Can Sustain Wildlife with Native Plants

Synopsis
Loaded with stunning color photographs, this practical guidebook, which encompasses the identification of moths, their caterpillars, and their vital roles in midwestern ecosystems, shows gardeners how to use native plants to attract these essential, but often overlooked and misunderstood, insects., Gardening for Moths is the first book to show midwestern gardeners and naturalists why they should attract specific moth species to their properties and how to do it. Stunning color photographs and detailed descriptions reveal the fascinating world of these insects, inspiring gardeners to incorporate moth-friendly native plants into their landscapes. The authors emphasize the importance of moths and their caterpillars to ecological food webs, appealing to birders and bat lovers as well. The book begins with a thorough over-view of moths, including their population decline and conservation, their importance in ecosystems, their relationship with native plants, and their predators and defenses. This section also features tips on how to attract and photograph moths at night. The next section profiles about 140 plant species, providing background, natural history, habitat, and growing notes for each, along with lists of moths the plants may attract. The third section highlights approximately 150 moth species ordered taxonomically. These accounts include interesting facts about the life cycles of both the caterpillar and the adult moth of each species. Each account also features a list of common host plants. Inset text boxes provide additional fascinating moth facts, and beautiful photographs (most by the authors) illustrate every included plant and moth species. Select references, online resources, and a host plant quick reference list round out this valuable resource., This guide to moths, native plants, and their environmental roles is an indispensable resource for gardeners, conservationists, and nature enthusiasts across the midwestern United States.
