30th Oct 2014 ... Halloween Blood-vein

The silly season continues around the moth traps with late season moths turning up, except for the ones I've dipped out on !

 Blood-vein 30th Oct 2014

This Blood-vein is probably another "latest" record for VC30.
Last nights catch was disappointing given the warm, humid conditions.
The minimum temperature was 13 deg C and there is talk on the Weather Forecast of 21 degrees today in the London area which would beat the previous high by 1 deg.
The catch:-
Blastobasis lacticolella, 1
Epiphyas postvittana, 7
Emmelina monodactyla, 3
Red-green Carpet, 1
Blood-vein, 1
Blair's Shoulder-knot, 2
Yellow-line Quaker, 1
Beaded Chestnut, 1
Satellite, 1
Angle Shades, 2
