Great pictures and information. Thank you for sharing. When I decided to go further a field, I saved hard and bought one of the first portable honda generators, that would have been in the late 1970s. Although light compared to other less compact models, in those days it would not have fitted in a rucksack and I remember my younger arms ached as I carried it deep into the forest. Being a temperate region, I can remember the moths arrived at my M.V. trap at different times in lesser numbers than in the tropics, but I placed a large sheet underneath the trap for those that did not want to enter. I recall all the species that visited by trap and what time of the year, very pleasant memories indeed.

Would be interesting if you could write an article about Colin Treadaway, as you seem to know him well.

Would be interesting if you could write an article about Colin Treadaway, as you seem to know him well. I agree, it would be very interesting. I know he is in his early 90s now and visited Chiang Mai in 1966, his collection is in the Senckenberg Museum, Frankfurt and he spent a lot of time in the Philippines, but that's pretty much all I really know apart from his publications.
