Summary

[edit]
Description

Last night in the back garden Continuing the theme of smaller content but hopefully more regular and manageable posts.

Last night I ran the trap again as you just never know what might fly into it given that we are in peak migrant season currently.

A new garden species was the highlight, a tiny Phyllonorycter ulmifoliella sitting on the collar of the trap which was swiftly potted up and photographed, a species that mines the leaves of Birch.

Old Lady was also a nice surprise, I don't see many of these and the sheer size of them against all of the other moths in the trap is breath-taking.

A garden second record of Argyresthia semitestacella was most welcome, very very similar to albistia but the general jizz of the moth is a longer more slender species with less contrast between the two colours but not always the case.

Also a really dark Square-spot Rustic was worthy of a photo and a Flounced Rustic re-appeared after a few weeks absense.
