Moths of REGUA

There is a huge diversity of moths found at REGUA, most of which remain unidentified (see below). Over the last few years we have been photographing and cataloguing the moths at REGUA in order to build a comprehensive database of the species present and their flight times. Progress is hampered by the lack of any field guides, however we are slowly building a comprehensive image library of the species present.

The exception is hawkmoths where not only have we identified all the species occurring at REGUA but we have also published an identification guide to the 110 species that have been recorded in the Serra dos Órgãos.
