Species List for 10/04/2018

Two new species for the year, but unfortunately the Pine Beauty was in a puddle, on a flower pot nest to the trap and it is very tatty.

Code Taxon Vernacular Individuals
688 Agonopterix heracliana 2 NFY
2179 Panolis flammea Pine Beauty 1 NFY
2182 Orthosia cruda Small Quaker 2
2187 Orthosia cerasi Common Quaker 5
2188 Orthosia incerta Clouded Drab 8
2189 Orthosia munda Twin-spotted Quaker 2
2190 Orthosia gothica Hebrew Character 6
2243 Xylocampa areola Early Grey 6

Sorry about these two dreadful photos, but it didn't get light here today. I thought these two moths were Agonopterix heracliana, but now I'm wondering about Agonopterix ciliella, for them.



The tattiest Pine Beauty I've seen. I fished it out of a puddle in a flower pot near the trap.
