A catch of 49 moths of 31 species last night. The Gothic was a FFY for me .
Melanie Jones helped me with identification of the other two: a very worn Clouded Brindle
and the Wainscot we thought was probably a Common. It was about 25mm long and had a large dark spot on its lower abdomen .
Gothic
Clouded Brindle
Common Wainscot ?
Well done for trapping Dai. Worn moths are a pain sometimes, so I would n`t like to offer a det from a photo for the worn wainscot. Gothic - to my mind - is very much a `thin-on-the-ground` moth in Carms.
ReplyDeleteHi Dai, the Clouded Brindle is a Slender Brindle!
