The MV trap in the alder grove alongside a small stream attracted 167 moths of 44 species last night, including seven FFYs. These were the Honeysuckle Moth (
Ypsolopha dentella) and Garden Rose Tortrix (
Acleris variegana) representing the micros, while the larger FFYs were Tawny Speckled Pug, Ruby Tiger and Dun-bar, along with the rather more noteworthy species shown below:
Ear Moth agg.
Dark Spectacle
and not too surprising when you note the habitat;
Blue-bordered Carpet.
