The continuing heat wave has been producing some good moth nights recently and a few firsts for site.
Haworth's Pug- first for the farm.The reddish band at the base of abdomen is distinctive.
Lesser Wax Moth (above and below)- first for the farm
Sitochroa verticalis - thought this might be Mecyna flavalis but amongst other features it lacks the kink in the outer cross line typical of flavalis (Cheers Billy, Surrey Moths)
Cochylidia rupicola - another first if id is correct.
Grey Pug ?
Eudemis profundana (Thanks Billy, Surrey moths for id) A first for the farmlands.
Grey Dagger
Blood Vein
Dusky Sallow- always good to see, up to four in the trap in recent nights
