Abstract
AbstractAn account is presented of the distribution and amounts of moonlight in latitudes near the equator. This includes a Table on the amount of moonlight for each hour of the night throughout a standard lunar cycle, applicable to any locality between 10°N and 10°S, and a Table of standard groups of moon phase which can be used at any locality irrespective of latitude. The construction of these Tables is described in detail and their use briefly discussed. A method is described which enables light-trap catch records to be arranged for analysis directly against moon phase.
