There will be relatively few under this heading so I will simply list species below and have one page for each. I can then add new images on the same page if and when I get any. Entries with an asterisk include images of the species taken in the Goyt Valley. Entries in bold type are plants which play host to caterpillars of species known to inhabit the Goyt Valley and may therefore play host to eggs.
