Records from Martin Corley

Post date: Jan 3, 2013 10:20:23 PM

I'm delighted to have had the latest records in from Martin Corley. It's been a few years since we last exchanged data and this import has provided nearly 19,000 records, with a new county record, the first county record of Brussels Lace since 1939, and many other highlights, many of which are nationally rare or scarce species.

Martin is one of the county's (indeed one of the UK's) greatest experts on micro-moths and provides a large proportion of our records for the more 'difficult' species. This latest import includes his records from the last few years and also a lot of older records that he has been adding to MapMate to make the lists as complete as possible.
