Species List for 20/10/2018 - The Summer House, St Mary's Isles of Scilly

Our first night on St Mary's, with Nina, Jack and Josh. Unfortunately the wind had changed to the north and and there were far fewer migrants than in the exceptional preceding weeks. Nevertheless we had some good moths. We ran Jack's 125W Robinson and a 15W portable Heath Actinic trap, and a "Morris" 80W collapsible Trap. In total there were 247 moths of 30 species.
