Could this possibly be a worn White-point? It’s certainly much smaller than the Clays I’ve been catching.
Welcome to the recording blog for the Carmarthenshire Moth and Butterfly Group. Could members please add any moth or butterfly records or any general items of interest by making a new post. Although everyone can comment on a post you will have to be a member to add a new post.
Well done if this moth gets accepted as a White-point, Jane, it's not on the spreadsheet I use or on the Carms 2016 list so it might be a new County record. I see you've got support for W-p from a F/B Group!
ReplyDeleteYes, looks like white-point to me too - look at the transverse barring forward of the spot (best seen in 2nd pic). White-points have been seen elsewhere too, so that fits in. A 2nd vcr - Arfon had one last year. Well done Jane.
ReplyDeleteKeeping my fingers crossed and will wait for Sam to OK it!
ReplyDeleteI’ve now had a comment on my FB post that it’s a Clay because of the curved antennae
