Abstract
Thirty-nine species belonged to eleven families were trapped in Nasr city (Cairo). The total numbers of trapped moths throughout the two years (2007&2008) were 23340 specimens. The total numbers of moths were 12646 individuals during the first year, while it was lower in the second year (10694 moths).
              Fourty-five species belonging to eleven lepidopterous families were recorded in Motobas region. The total numbers of moths during two years were 26483 moths. The total numbers of moths during the first year were 13680 moths and 12803 moths during the second year.
 Family Noctuidae was the most abundant family in both number of species (16 and 19 species) and number of individuals, 9578 moths representing 41.04% and 13868 moths constituting 52.37% of the total Lepidopterous catch in Nasr city and Motobas respectively.
Spodoptera littoralis was the most abundant species, in all families in both regions. Individuals of this species (3878 moths represented 16.62% and 5759 moths represented 21.75% of the total lepidopterous catch in Nasr city and Motobas respectively.
