      Lol! Ferdy, I purchased my backlight today ready for my first attempt at serious mothing in March which I've been advised by a Professor of Entomology friend is the best month for this area. He's just north of me here in New South Wales and is currently doing research on moth diversity and seasonality within the Lower Manning Valley. He also told me that for my location, I could expect to see up to 750 species over a year, depending on weather, how often and how long I have the sheet out. Goodness me!

        Ohhhh....that makes me very happy and excited. I hope you're going to share the results here. If so, might I advise you create a list? Handy way to keep them organized. Posted 4 years ago
