Hi,

A good night's trapping included the first Copper Underwing for the year. Just a couple for help with IDs please.

Thanks

Julia

I would go for Blastobasis adustella for the micro, Julia.

For the pug, I'll need to psyche myself up to look into the books!

I started at the back of Brian Hancock's book "Pug Moths of North-west England" on page 114 and leafed forwards until page 51 where the photo of the Juniper Pug was a great match!
