Which Rustic?
Is this another well marked Common Rustic agg? It is a bit washed out as we used flash.
That looks like a Flounced to me. The outer edge of the median fascia has teeth and the reniform stigma is relatively large. If you're unsure, then check the hindwing as it's brilliant white in Flounced and rather grubby in Common/Lesser.

ReplyDeleteThanks Sam. Norman Lowe also suggested a Flounced Rustic and checking again it is a white hindwing so I will record as this.
