Species List for 27/07/2023

 A better night, with the wind dropping and only a gentle drizzle. A decent selection of moths with 541 moths of 81 species and seven NFY including a nice Mohican crowned Pearly Underwing. What made the night extraordinary  was the 121 European Corn Borers. Around 30 is the previous highest, and I suspect there were many more around the vegetation.
