great site... If I have the time to go through them all - and an internet connection! - I bet all my spottings are on it!

Great! Thanks J... I don't know how you find out the names of these moths on the net, but you are doing a great job. There were nearly 100 listed on Wiki. I'm not much of a researcher, I'm afraid!
