This may be nothing new to many of you, however, The Moth Photographer Group Website is the "website" for all of the moths of North America. This "IS" the site to identify your moths from North America. 95% of the moths that occur in North America are pictured. They are in MONA order. As you view the plates, if the MONA number appears in BLUE, click it and you can view more pcturs of specimens of the species, both prepared and living. It is a great source for IDENTIFICATION.

There are many website for information on North American Lepidoptera. In my opinion the "Butterflies and Moths" website is by far the best website for information on the Lepidoptera of North American. There are checklists for most states, maps of species range and records for state and Provinces. It is a great tool.

The Moth Photographers Group is wanting photographs of larvae. Think about this. If the Moth Photographers Group illustrated Adults, Immatures, range maps, adult flight periods, host plants, what a tool that website would become.
There are many Lepidoptera websites for NA Leps. Overall, these two are the best in my opinion.
