Species List for 3/6/2011

Rannoch Loopers Little variaition in the four specimens caught. Two in my MV trap and two in the Actinic, surprisingly none in the two Black bulb traps. Both of these are good for pugs and other geometers.

New Macros for the year were Rannoch Looper, Broken-barred Carpet, Tawny Speckled Pug and Straw Dot. New micros, Lozotaenia forsterana and Green Oak Tortrix. The third year I've recorded Rannoch Looper, but the earliest date and four in one night for the first time. The Broken-barred Carpet was only the second record.
