Yes it has taken this long to sort the Micro's out...still there are species to confirm but we are 98% there now and with 164 species I now provide a list of the Micro Moth's we caught during our 5 night stay at Las Descargues. Some really unusual moths, some commonly found in our Country and others considered as rare or possible migrants.

Again species in red are completely new to me (And there were a few!)
