Description:

Description: Here is a list with some pictures of the moths I found in Turkey when I went thee for two weeks between the 8th and 22nd of August, and were attracted to my 9w Blacklight tube up in the mountains. Some great new species were to be found in a region 5 miles South-West of Marmaris, and there were also some more familiar species that we record back home. I'll let the list and the photos do the talking. Some are still pending id and several specimens await dissection.
