Not a bad selection tho......

My second DOT MOTH 2155 and this time I managed to get a pic.
GYPSONOMA SOCIANA 1168 a year first... ERROR...ERROR
Thanks Mark "Skev" Skevington for correctly I D'ing this as ....
SPILONOTA OCELLANA 1205 the BUD MOTH, a year first
I thought I'd leave the best 'til last....... A garden first ( and a lifer) SCARCE SILVER-LINES 2421 caught while checking the shed wall actinic lights in-between showers.
259 species.....159 macro, 100 micro
Gypsonoma sociana? Or Bud Moth Spilonota ocellana ...
ReplyDeleteCracking Scarce Silver-lines, could do with another one of those in the garden this year.
I think your Bud Moth is looking more likely Skev.
ReplyDeleteI sent a pic to the recorder earlier, who hasn't got back to me yet, so I took a flyer.
I've just had a look at the images on Lepiforum, which are better than UK Moths and it is definitely S. ocellana.
Thanks again mate...I promise not to knock your music ever again
No problems Trent - I'm thick skinned (have to be to listen to some of this stuff!)
