Greetings moth enthusiasts! As always it's been a busy year since my last post. I've spent much of my time assisting Greg Pohl with updates to the Pohl et al. 2016 Check List. As I've been plugging away at the list, I've been fleshing out the species pages with references and information on similar species, ranges, etc. Many will be happy to know that I have recently updated MPG species maps with data from BugGuide.


National Moth Week. Please take note that National Moth Week 2021 will be held on July 17-25. Click here to register online.


New Noctuoidea Fascicle. MONA Fascicle 25.4, the long awaited volume covering Acronictinae, has been published by the Wedge Entomological Research Foundation. MPG has been updated per this important work.


New Photos Editor. My request for volunteer photo editors has been met with success. Many hundreds of images from the U.S. National Entomological Collection (mostly type specimnes) and Jim Vargo's Moths of North America collection have been added by our new editors Paul Westell and Jim Durbin. I am extremely grateful for their assistance.
