The number of pages devoted to the moths of
Nottinghamshire is pretty huge. All our moth records and trapping
results (now over 70 pages) going back to 2003 are published and
continue to be published annually and updated on an almost daily basis.
We've also produced a summary of our moth records and trapping results
each year for 20 years.
Aside from trapping related pages,
there are a growing number of pages aimed at helping those new to moths
with identification and separation of difficult/similar species, all
complete with illustrations and photographs. Once again, there are pages
devoted to some families and migrant moths recorded in Nottinghamshire,
including our records and summaries of each migrant species recorded in
the county and a report on the notable migrant year of 2006.
There's a calendar of leaf mining moths to help those
further any interest in micro moths and a beginners guide to moths and
moth trapping, including a monthly guide to the moths most frequently
encountered.
We also produce and maintain a county species list
of those moths recorded from Nottinghamshire. Its as complete as is
possible and available in both pdf and Excel file formats, with the
Excel list providing species' lists in Taxonomic, ABH and B&F orders. |
