Potentially more interesting was a very large noctuid caterpillar that I'm hoping is Grey Chi (a moth I've never seen as an imago), which would be only the 3rd VC record. I've emailed a photo to George and Barry for their thoughts.

Plantlife Reserve, Cae Blaen Dyffryn
A 15 minute stop at Cae Blaen Dyffryn SSSI in SN6044 produced 14 moth species, including Argyresthia semifusca, A. pygmaeella (photo), Leucoptera laburnella, Phyllonorycter maestingella and Blastodacna hellerella new for SN64. Also a couple of Epinotia cruciana beaten from willow (poor photo).
