So, bayucca, "common name" isn't like "scientific name". They are not rules stritic.
In fact, there is more than one common name to an specie depending on the place, region or culture.
In this spott, I put two common names, the first one being a translation of the name in Brazil ("Mariposa Atlas") and the other more common in english.
But thanks for the observation.

So JoshuaGSmith, we use (I don't now the name in English for this type of Bat Net, but we call of something like "Fog-Net") bat nets with 9m and 12m in length by 3m in height. The Fog-Nets be 1m to 3m above the ground, and, we make a trail belong the forest with 9 to 15 Fog-Nets.
Sometimes we too use the "Dossel-Web" (don't know the English name), thats is a Net that we put using the the tall trees how suport.
In this spot, you can have a idea of the Fog-Net [ http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/184... ]
