Live Adnoto Atlas 2015-2019

A live atlas of Adnoto records for the current 2015-2019 recording period can be found HERE. Although this is currently running off unverified data (so a few records may not be correct) the absence of a record for a 1km square is a definite absence of a record, so please try to fill in the gaps near you during this five year period. Records submitted via other means won't of course show as this is running off the Adnoto database - another reason to use this for submitting records. Thanks, Keith

Submitting Records

Important: An observation reported on a social medium such as Twitter, Facebook, Flickr, Yahoo, YouTube, blogs, etc. or entered into an online recording system such as Living Record, WildWalks, etc. is most likely not going to be seen by the County Recorders and therefore will not result in a record in the Bedfordshire database or in the national database. It is impossible for us to monitor all these channels of information for records, even if we wished to spend all day in front of a computer trying to do so! Records entered into Big Butterfly Count are also unlikely to be used as the data quality in this survey is usually difficult to determine. Please therefore submit your records using one of the channels below only - thank you.

Bedfordshire butterfly sightings should be reported to Keith:
  • via Adnoto, or else
  • using the iRecord Butterflies App, or
  • using the iRecord website or the iRecord App, or
  • on this spreadsheet, or
  • by email
The cut-off date for records to be included in the annual report in Bedfordshire Naturalist is 31st January, but please don't leave them all until then! Get them in a soon as you can please.

Please DO NOT submit records by more than one route as this leads to duplicate records which have to be found and removed thus causing unnecessary work.

If you wish to submit records on paper please use this form and post to Peter.

Note that records entered into the iRecord Butterflies App and iRecord website will reach us only at the end of the season, as will records entered into the WCBS and UKBMS online systems, which are also acceptable for record submission for those special types of transect surveys. Records are not normally marked as accepted or rejected within iRecord itself but all valid records will be used.

If you have used an electronic recording system other than Adnoto or iRecord, such as Living Record, WildWalks, Recorder 6, MapMate, etc. then please extract the records yourselves and email them as a spreadsheet to Keith before the end of December.
