National maps
- Butterfly Conservation Micro-moth Distribution Maps PDF documents with scans of manually updated UK & Ireland vice-county map cards (data to 2014). Some years ago many of these maps had been converted to digital form, but links to these no longer appear on the page

Macro-moth records from NMRS are included, up to 2019.

probably because of the large amount of browser memory it uses for all the data, but it works on two
more recent phones (one of which is itself several years old)
