You may submit as many photos as you wish, but you should limit yourself to the best photo that you have for each species. If possible, photos should be trimmed or cropped to a square size of 300 x 300 pixels or larger. They will probably be reduced in size to be used here. Up to 10 photos at this size may be embedded in a single email and sent to the Webmaster. Your photos should be in .jpg format, with sequential filenames such as BP001.jpg, BP002.jpg and so on, but substitute your initials for "BP". They will be posted under the sequential ID filenames and you will receive email with identifications tied to the IDs that were used. If you cannot embed photos under your email system, you may attach individual photos to individual emails. Please do not send numerous photos inside .zip files. If you have numerous photos and are capable of burning them onto a CD, you may do so and mail the CD to the Webmaster. Telephone if you have problems.
If you can identify one of the photos shown on one of the Unidentified Moths pages, please use the "click to identify" link below that photo. The email addresses and subject line will be filled in. Please do not change either. In the message box please give the scientific name and, if you know the Hodges number and common name, give them also. If you have a link to a photo with which the one here may be compared, include the URL. Your suggestion for identification will be placed below the photograph.
Photos that you summit and which have been identified here will be archived for possible use on species pages on this website. Any such usage of your photos will include a copyright notice under your name. An entry will be placed in the MPG Contact Directory giving your email address, and your website URL (if you have one). Submitting photos implies that you are giving informed consent to these terms.
