Subject: [tn-moths] FOY submissions & need Audrey's county


   Audrey and Mike, please put "FOY" in the subject line, so I won't miss any 
entries.  Thanks.  We should have lots of flying friends soon; if we have a 
standard format for FOY, it will help me immensely.   Subject line should 
include "FOY" and moth.  Date and county need to be prominent in the body of 
the email, preferably the first item.  
Here is an example:
Pyrrharctia isabella    Isabella Tiger Moth 
23 Jan 
Cocke Co, TN 
(Including Hodges number and/or family is helpful, but not necessary)
  
 
 
We're aiming for 1.000 different moths this year, in many different 
counties........  This is going to be exciting!    We even need records of your 
Cutworms and Corn Borers, before you squash them.  Let's put Tennessee on the 
moth map.
Other info and personal observations are welcome on this list.  It is 
especially helpful to us new moth-ers to learn how to attract moths, where the 
day-flyers can be found, ID characteristics, etc.
 
Audrey, what is your county?   Knox?
