Recording moths

Moth recording is oragniased around 'vice-county' boundaries, which are roughly equivalent to the county boundaries in use before 1974. This means that "Berkshire" includes much of what is now south-west Oxfordshire. For instance, these places are all in Berkshire for moth recording purposes:
  • Abingdon
  • Didcot
  • Faringdon
  • Wallingford
  • Wantage
On the other hand, Slough is in vice-county Bucknghamshire! Upper Thames Butterfly Conservation has some more information about vice-county boundaries.
