Does anyone have a good source for Pyralidae identification? Or perhaps some of you here are experienced Pyralidae collectors who are willing to help me with the identifications. I'll try my best to provide photos for you.

I have a whole lot of Pyralidae and have only managed to identify a few... Any help anyone? All of these specimens are Indo-Australian.

Regards, Khalid

On the Tropical Lepidopteris Society webpage, there should be world catalogues there. These have photographs for every specimen, I believe. However, they are over $90.00 for non members. You might want to check them out and maybe get the ones you'd want.
