Abstract

Microlepidoptera of Iki-shima Island, Nagasaki Prefecture, Kyushu, Japan, were collected using HID spot light (30 W) and UV LED light (10 W) on September 16-18, 2023. Fifty-one moth species (13 families) were recognized, and all the moths were recorded from the island for the first time. Three tortricids, Bactra robustana (Christoph, 1872), Ancylis comptana (Frölich, 1828) and Rhopalovalva ayanishiki Nasu, 2022, were the first records from Kyushu.
