Philippine Lepidoptera
Our Projects: From 2 online collection sites, PhiLep consolidates, documents and classifies lepidopterans from all over the country. The result is made available through a website and FB community page which can be used by students, researchers and enthusiasts as reference. Through social networking sites, lectures and events we motivate people to protect the environment and conserve biodiversity by sharing facts and other interesting aspects of Philippine lepidopterans.

Butterflies in the Philippines Mission at Project Noah
This is a mission to document the Butterflies that can be seen in the Philippines. They may be endemic, native, or introduced species. Please include only spottings of butterflies and their caterpillars or chrysalis taken anywhere in the Philippines. This mission takes on a broader audience by sharing the data gathered here to the Philippine Lepidoptera community at https://www.facebook.com/PhilippineLepidoptera.
Moths in the Philippines mission at Project Noah
Moths play an important role in the natural ecosystem as pollinators and as food in the food chain. The tropical location and once extensive areas of rainforest in the Philippines resulted in high moth species diversity and very high level of endemism. Many moth species are yet to be described. Help us document moths in the Philippines by submitting your photos of moths taken in the Philippine islands and adding descriptive notes at: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/15913873
