Okay, there was definitely a Myrmeleontidae (ant lion adult) in several shots. Very cool. Though, the things I like to see at light traps are much smaller than what you liked to show. Fungus gnats, caddisflies, other aquatic insects.

@Alfacuria They are attracted to the ultraviolet wavelengths of light emitted by these UV and mercury vapor bulbs.

The lights are blacklight bulbs (white colored BL350) and the one on the tripod is a Mercury Vapor bulb (older type street light bulbs).
