Does anybody knows what is the radius (in metres) from the lamp for 
attracting nocturnal Lepidoptera to light?
The lamp is ML 160 W and it is hung at 2 metres height.

I have heard that if such lamp is hung at 1 metre height, it attracts 
Lepidoptera within 50 metre radius.

Are there any publications on this question?

Sincerely,

Dalius Dapkus
