Autumn Green Carpet

Post by pfa47 »

This Autumn Green Carpet was a nice surprise in the trap this morning in Elworth. A new one for me. Also a Merveille du Jour and a Feathered Thorn nfy.

A very nice find! There's some lovely autumnal moths out there to be found.

Cheers, Julian

A good record, as this species is mainly restricted to the eastern uplands. I wonder if there is an isolated population nearby in the Peckforton Hills where this one may have originated from.
