Argyresthia semitestacella from above Lord Flame

Argyresthia semitestacella from above Lord Flame:

Argyresthia semitestacella is a species which I am sure is very under recorded in the county and I have only once caught it at light. It flies August/September and can easily be disturbed from mature beech woods. This individual was blown out of the Beeches yesterday from above the jesters grave in Maggoty Wood.

And, if you want to read more about Maggoty Johnson, here's a link http://www.carlscam.com/gawsworth/maggoty.htm
