Species List For 22/5/2014

There was a moderate southerly breeze overnight, gusting to a strong breeze, and even with a min temp of 12.3 deg C it was an uninspiring catch. Just 48 moths of 21 species. There were two minors, one exhibiting all the expected characters of a Marbled Minor and the other a Tawny Marbled Minor, but since I won't be giving them the chop they will stay as Minor aggs. One of the Poplar Hawks was just one hind wing, but I have no idea what was the assassin.
