All the photos are taken in pure natural conditions and
depict fully free butterflies and moths. I add some main synonims, unfortunately,
in many cases the nomenclature, especially generic, is still unstable and
I am not able to adduce all the circulating synonyms.
The main regions are indicated where pictures were taken.
