MOTHS RECORDED AT ROSPANNEL FARM DURING 2003  up until end of October
Note    If a species was present but the numbers were not counted, this appears as a "0" in the records
This is why, for example in the first record it states "Records, 7 " and "Individuals 2 ", meaning that the species
was recorded on 7 occassions but that only 2 were actually counted. I didn't start recording the actual
numbers until July
