Highlights were Aspilapterix tringinipella, Acrobasis suavella, Udea prunalis, query Bryotropha sp (see photo), Lackey, Peach Blossom, 3 Garden Tiger, Dingy Footman, Scarce Footman, Elephant Hawkmoth, White-line Dart, query Light Feathered Rustic (? see photo), Dot moth, Small Angle Shades.
I'm thinking Bryotropha terrella for the micro, and leaning towards a worn Light Feathered Rustic on the two queries we have.
Cheers, Mike & Emma
Light Feathered Rustic looks good to me; very nice. The B Terrrella looks possible but I wouldn't like to say for sure!
ReplyDeleteCheers Chris, that backs up what we felt!

ReplyDeleteSeems late for LFR to me and I'm wondering if this might be an odd looking Sand Dart ... I'll have another ponder, but if anyone else has any thoughts? Certainly an odd-looking thing!
I'm glad its got you wondering Barry too, it was my first instinct, but then changed my mind cos of the absence of the dart! Emma disagreed with me and voted for LFS! Could it be that it is a pale / worn late LFS?
ReplyDeleteYes it's possible, but the lack of grey tones, lack of a median fascia, elongate wings and whitish dots distally from the post-median line all suggest SD to me. There are examples of SD that don't show a dart, but not an easy one.
