The majority of day-flying moth records* for Warwickshire, Coventry, Solihull and Sutton Coldfield come from casual observers and dedicated volunteers who submit their sightings via our online recording form. Prior to 2018, sightings of day-flying moths were submitted as additional notes to our butterfly sightings recording form.
*All records submitted are processed and checked for errors before the data is submitted to Butterfly Conservation at the end of the season.
