Hello!

Wellcome to the first portuguese website of Moths.

 

How to use

In the left side we have 18 pictures that represent wich family of portuguese moth. We can see the name of the family by passing with the mouse over each picture. Pressing each one we have a small resume of each family. There we can chose the species list or the thumbs pictures.

Press Home button twice to go back to the beginning.

 

In Construction

We do not have all the portuguese moths represented in this website so if you have any picture taken in Portugal that´s not yet in this site please send it to us! Will thank you for your help!
