New Moth book
- Chris Manley, DMG member, is producing a new book due out
in November this year, published by A & C Black /
Christopher Helm. Illustrates over 850 macros, 500 micros,
74 butterflies, 315 caterpillars by around 50 photographers.
All 2250 photos of live insects. Alan Titchmarsh has
kindly written a foreword describing the book as
'Sensational'! Price probably £19.99.
Moths Count
is a partnership project led by Butterfly Conservation. The main aims of
the project are to raise the awareness of moths, stimulate and encourage
involvement, particularly in recording moths and to set up the National
Moth Recording Scheme to gather the information necessary to understand
and reverse the decline of moths. We think that is very important for
people to be able to find out about moths and moth recording in their area
and to get involved with their local group. The Moths Count website can be
reached on (www.mothscount.org).

NMRS Newsletter 1
- I have
pleasure in attaching the first
Moths Count newsletter. I hope that it is of interest.
We will be distributing the newsletter (by email
wherever possible) to over 1200 people listed on the Moths Count/National
Moth Recording Scheme mailing list and via other organisations. It will also
be posted on the Moths Count web site.
In case anyone is unfamiliar with the .pdf
format, you will need Adobe Reader in order to view the newsletter. This
software is freely available at
www.adobe.com/uk/ I hope that the size of the attachment does not cause
problems for any recipients, but feedback on this and anything else to do
with the Moths Count project is welcome.
Please
feel free to pass the newsletter on or use parts of it in your own documents,
web sites and communications.
Regards
