The records you enter using this form will be added to the Moth Trap Intruders group.

We strongly recommend you log in to an account on iRecord and then join the Moth Trap Intruders activity to benefit fully from this recording form. You can add records without logging in but they will not get displayed as part of the "Moth Trap Intruders" Activity.

This form is for recording "moth-trap intruders", that is any species found in a moth trap that is not a moth! Please do not add records of moths to this form - moth records should go on the iRecord moths form.
 *
For trapping records, please enter the date the trap was set (turned on), not the date for the follwing morning (if the trap was run overnight).
 *

Enter the recorder's name, if different.

 

Optionally enter your sampling method (i.e. type of trap or recording method)

Please enter all the species you saw at one site on a single day. Then move to the Where was it? tab before submitting your records.
For the quantity, do not enter a zero to mean "present but not counted" - if the quantity was not counted, leave this column blank (if you use a zero iRecord will interpret that as meaning the species was absent).
