CWTs Gowy Meadows Moth event: 5th September 2019

Post by SteveH »

Morning folks,

so getting back to the Gowy Meadows trapping session from a couple of days back... 24 species was the final total with possibly as many as 200 individuals. Most were Setaceous Hebrew Characters and Square-spot Rustics as might be imagined but there were a few nicities too.

The object of the exercise was to increase our understanding of what is on the reserve and to that end we added 11 more species to the site list, taking it to 324.

List of species recorded (micro moths in italics, new reserve species prefixed with an asterisk)

*Paraswammerdamia albicapitella
*Ypsolopha alpella
*White-shouldered Moth (Endrosis sarcitrella)
Pandemis cerasana
Epiphyas postvittana
Acleris rhombana
Ancylis badiana
*Eudonia angustea

Blood-vein (Timandra comea)
Common Marbled Carpet (Chloroclysta truncata)
Green Carpet (Colostygia pectinataria)
*Double-striped Pug (Gymnoscelis rufifasciata)
Brimstone Moth (Opisthograptis luteolata)
Flame Shoulder (Ochropleura plecta)
Large Yellow Underwing (Noctua pronuba)
Lesser Yellow Underwing (Noctua comes)
*Small Square-spot (Diarsia rubi)
Setaceous Hebrew Character (Xestia c-nigrum)
*Square-spot Rustic (Xestia xanthographa)
*Feathered Gothic (Tholera decimalis)
Smoky Wainscot (Mythimna impura)
*The Sallow (Xanthia icteritia)
*Angle Shades (Phlogophora meticulosa)
*Burnished Brass (Diachrysia chrysitis)
Straw Dot (Rivula sericealis)
The Snout (Hypena proboscidalis)

Cheers,
Steve
