Best Trap this month....
Posted: Sun Jun 23, 2019 1:36 pm
130 moths of 42 species last night (22/06/2019) and still a couple to ID.
Buff Arches Habrosyne pyritoides, Common Emerald Hemithea aestivaria, Double Square-spot Xestia triangulum, Celypha striana, Aleimma loeflingiana, Hawthorne Moth Scythropia crataegella and Bryotropha affinis all NFY.
It also gets better with only my second ever Blotched Emerald Comibaena bajularia, the first being from 23/06/2006.
It could also improve if I am correct with the ID of two micro's that I have tentatively named as Acrobasis consociella and Elachista canapennella. Photo's below, but the latter moth has a wing length of only 4mm, so it was difficult to get a sharp image.
As usual, confirmation, correction or suggestions would be appreciated.
