There were over one hundred individuals in last night's effort of over 40 species, and micros were much better represented with a number of genera present. I found 2 Acleris bergmanniana which are rarely in the garden.
They were both quite worn, the other specimen being in an even worse state and hence, camera-shy.
Variegated Golden Tortrix is a new species for me and my garden.
Finally, I found a small moth which I decided was an Epermenia aequidentellus. It does not appear on our list but my photographs certainly match the illustrations in my books and online.
I note the dark elements front and back and the four dark bumps on a creamy body with a hint of rust.
Adam`s Epermenia was later confirmed by Sam as the 3rd vcr - well done!
