This is the main feature of the website.

More than 1400 moth species have been recorded in Ireland. Of these more than 570 are macro-moth species

A national moth database is being compiled. Provisional distribution atlases with flight graph are being upload for macro-moths. Currently more than 480 atlases have been uploaded. The compilation of the database was started in early 2007 and is concentrating on compiling the records of current recorders. It will take many years to compile older records.

Because the database is not complete, therefore these atlases are also incomplete

<<<-----------Use the search function or the various lists to locate species.

The search uses whole words, but will give "hints" if a part word is entered.

An explanation page details the various items in the atlas. This is also a link in the footer to this page.

It is planned to depict photos and provide a text summary for many if not most species.
