The latter is significant for my garden, as it is only the second garden record (last seen in 2014, dead and hanging in a spiders web). So it was nice to photograph a live specimen for a change.
It seems to be quite an elusive species to conventional moth lights and seems to prefer incandescent bulbs, particularly Bus Shelters and Phone Boxes (If you can still find one that is!).
The trap hasn't been on for four nights now, as I await the next mild spell.
Garden species count for 2019 now upto 5.
Below are the highlights and new for year species.
