Moths

Results of a project to photograph moths attracted to a UV light in the yard at night starting April, 2006.
Because of variations not all identifications are sure to be accurate. Links to references are included with the captions.
Thanks especially to Bob Patterson of the Moth Photographers Group who has helped with some of the identifications.
So far about 767 were new species records for Washington County. Of these, about 298 were new records for Oklahoma.
Further explanation and a PDF file of the records by county for Oklahoma are here: Oklahoma Moths by County and a list of Oklahoma moths here: Checklist of Oklahoma Moths
Also, check out Moths of Oklahoma at the University of Science and Arts of Oklahoma, Moth Photographers Group at Mississippi State U., and BugGuide.Net at Iowa State U.
I printed a booklet that contains these images. It is useful to quickly see what species I have found. It has been suggested that it be made available to others - here: Blurb Book
