The box on Friday attracted 82 moths of 27 species. Of these 5 were new for the year - Chequered Fruit-tree Tortrix, Canary-shouldered Thorn, Flounced Rustic (I think), Small Square-spot and Small Waved Umber. The latter is new for the garden and me, and although looking a little battered, I'm fairly confident with my ID. The Tortrix was also new for the garden.
The box also held 5 species of caddisfly, of which I could only identify one - Limnephilus lunatus.

Small Waved Umber |
Small Waved Umber looks good and that is indeed Flounced Rustic.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mark. The 2015 running total for the garden is edging towards the 250 mark now.
