Ken Neil and I are presently working on a revised version of the Macrolepidoptera of Nova Scotia. This will be a distributional checklist of species in the province. It's not a major update of Ferguson (1955) but does include records of an additional 119 species, more distributional information, and has contemporary taxonomy and nomenclature. I'd be interested in what species of moths you have found at Round Hill. Cheers!
