Species List for 9/5/2011

Grass Rivulet

Brown Silver-line

Shears

As with last night I took in my black light traps at 12.30a.m. because of rain (black bulbs being very sensitive to getting wet). Nevertheless it was an extremely worth well night with a new moth for the site, and a good moth at that, a Flame Wainscot,. As far as I can see there hasn't been one in Kent for about four years. Other moths new for the year were Eudonia angustea, Grass Rivulet, Brown Silver-line and Shears.
