New Sightings for Shocklach

Post by macchi »

New Sightings for Shocklach:

I'm very much an amateur and new to all this and should be interested to know if these two moths are widespread in Cheshire. I hope I have identified them correctly but please let me know if I haven't.

Thanks in advance.

We only have 5 previous records of Small Scallop (Idaea emarginata) on the database at rECOrd these being from Little Budworth Common, Sound Common, Whitegate Way and Delamere.

So a very good record indeed.

It has been a very good year for Small Rivulet too.
