This guide, by Butterfly Conservation, is intended for anyone involved in the management of woodland. It provides guidance on the woodland habitat features needed by butterflies and moths, and how to create, maintain and improve them.

This is part of our Good Practice Guidance for Invertebrates, produced by Paul Lee.
