Good night Tuesday but some micros for ID confirmation

Post by bobhelencoan »

65 moths of 19 species plus daytime twenty plume moth. Best was a lovely bright green V moth, not one we usually get. There are five micros we think we have identified but would appreciate confirmations.

Any help much appreciated Bob & Helen

Hi Bob & Helen
V-Moth should be V-Pug
Not sure about your Agonopterix, although your others are correct.
A good catch

Thanks Steve, Have just realised our mistake, or rather my senior moment typing V moth instead of V pug. Bob & Helen
