I could be corrected, I would say Engrailed and Willow Beauty (Feathered beauty has different shaped antennae). Looks as if your Dingy Shell was much better behaved than mine. Cloaked carpet, fine specimen.

ReplyDeleteThat's where I was going with the first two, but wanted to be certain. Thanks .
DeleteDingy Shell is a First
Andy's right on all 4. Feathered Beauty is ultra-implausible in Carms: you really only need to consider Willow, Mottled and Satin Beauties and (Small) Engrailed here in summer. Further east there are Pale and Great Oak Beauties, but I don't think we've got them in Carms.
ReplyDeleteThanks again.
