comments published on the Dorset Moths Latest Sightings webpage or any other
external website, especially with respect to notable and important Dorset
moth records, are unconfirmed and remain so until the record is forwarded
to and ratified by the appropriate county moth recorder. For the benefit of
moths, their conservation and to help improve our knowledge of their status and
distribution, please forward your records!
Sending your records in - towards the end of the year,
please submit your
records to the County recorders. Records can then be
assessed, and sent on to the DERC, and highlights included
in the reports produced for this website. Records can be sent in tabular
form, a copy of the approved spreadsheet may assist in
this respect. Please do not assume that submitting
