Wow, wow and more wows! How did you find all these (in a moth trap?). Beautiful... the more I look at them the more I think I will have to get a moth trap. Sleepless nights ahead! Jane

Yes a 125W MV light over a Skinner type box was used. This is just a selection of the moths recorded. I'll add a full list when I get time.
