Join moth experts from the NHSM Lep Club for an overview of how to identify various types of moths. Bring photos, actual specimens (including caterpillars or pupae), and questions about moths; leave with insight and information. Suitable for all ages and all levels of previous knowledge, from novices on up. Afterwards, you can apply what you’ve learned at one of our upcoming Moth Nights!
This meeting will take place in person at 6908 Belair Rd. All are welcome — you do not need to be a member to attend a meeting. But we do appreciate an RSVP. Please email the club coordinator (mfalk@marylandnature.org) with any questions or concerns.
If you love butterflies and moths, consider joining the NHSM Lep Club. Made up of novice and expert lepidopterists who meet to exchange knowledge and support concerning habitat, threats, food sources, identification, and life cycle of butterflies and moths, the Lep Club encourages the sharing of knowledge for the raising and breeding of moths and butterflies through hands-on lessons and guest speakers. Club members are also involved in outreach in the greater Baltimore community through educational programs and service projects. Club meetings often feature a guest speaker who shares their knowledge on a topic related to moths and butterflies. Meetings also include time to distribute caterpillars, eggs, and host plants.
