The "New Moon Mothing and Beer Tasting at the Farm Event" was once again fun 
and educational. 
Ten people gathered to socialize, look at moths and sample some excellent 
beers. 
John (Buck) Lewis, the Smithsonian Entomologist who recently moved to the area 
brought a show and tell. 
It included spread specimens from Thailand that were collected in the 1930's. 
Hugh will be glad to know that the number of moth species outnumbered the 
varieties of beer. 
Some of the interesting moths include.  
 
Unid. Tortricidae - Tortricid Moth
Allagrapha aerea - Unspotted Looper Moth - Hodges#8898
Leucania sp. - maybe L. ursula - Ursula Wainscot - Hodges#10461
 
All were In Jonesborough, TN (Washington County) on 5/20/12. 
 
The next New Moon Mothing/Beer Event is tentatively scheduled for Tuesday, June 
19th. Let me know if you would like to be added to the invite list.
