Wikipedia:WikiProject Lepidoptera/Indian moths

Introduction
The Indian Moths sub-project deals with approximately 10,000 Indian Moths. The aim of the wikibase is to form a useful resource on Indian moths for the global public, in general, and amateur Indian naturalists, in particular. Data is based upon species listed for India in Hampson (1892-1937) and Kendrick (2002 [2003]) and is checked for synonymy against Beccaloni et al. (2003). The articles authored for this project are named on the basis of the scientific names of the species they describe.

The Wikipedians actively associated with writing for the project are :-
 * AshLin;
 * Vijay Barve;
 * Roger Kendrick (a.k.a. HKmoths).
 * Viren
 * Tonton Bernardo
 * Manoj Karingamadathil

Progress so far
These will be family wise lists. Most lists are yet to be started. Lists for Saturniidae and Brahmaeidae have been started and species entered checked against LepIndex, but these lists may not yet be complete. Work has commenced on Saturniidae, Sphingidae, Noctuidae, Eupterotidae, Sesiidae, Bombycidae, Brahmaeidae, Notodontidae and Psychidae.

Requests have been made in IndianMoths yahoo group for support and contributions of knowledge and images. We hope that the members will respond very positively to this appeal.
