Belgium Federal constitutional monarchy in Western Europe

It is bordered by the Netherlands to the north, Germany to the east, Luxembourg to the southeast, France to the southwest, and the North Sea to the northwest.

The capital and largest city is Brussels; other major cities are Antwerp, Ghent, Charleroi and Liège.

Microlepidoptera clade

Microlepidoptera (micromoths) is an artificial grouping of moth families, commonly known as the 'smaller moths'. These generally have wingspans of under 20 mm, and are thus harder to identify by external phenotypic markings than macrolepidoptera. They present some lifestyles which the larger Lepidoptera do not have, but this is not an identifying mark. Some hobbyists further divide this group into separate groups, such as leaf miners or rollers, stem or root borers, and then usually follow the more rigorous scientific taxonomy of lepidopterans. Efforts to stabilize the term have usually proven inadequate.

He was a Member of Société entomolologique de Belgique.

The Royal Belgian Entomological Society is a learned society based in Brussels, Belgium which is devoted to entomology, the study of insects. It was founded on 9 April 1855.
