Passenger, caught 23/9/2006 (National moth night).
Mothing at St Margaret's
Most of the Moth lists and Photographs are from my garden (TR359450) in the village of St Margaret's at Cliffe in Kent. It is situated about 1Km from the sea and has farmland with in 100 metres. The garden is well shrubbed and about 1600 sq metres. I normally run a 125 MV lamp and a 15W actinic light over-night and once the season gets going a couple of other traps. At the moment both are 25W black Lamps. previously I used a 160W blended lamp in one of them. All traps are home made. Trapping dates refer to the date the trap was put out.
I try and identify all the Macro Moths, with the micros I am not at all systematic, I do more than I used to with the help of the new book, but there are some that do get through.
Trap Update in 2017. A new 125W MV Robinson was added to a 125W MV Skinner, 15W Actinic Skinner, two 80W MV Morris modified Skinners and a 80W MVMorris Box trap.
Traps are now (2020 onwards) 2x 125W Robinsons, 2x 80W Skinner type and 1x 15W Actinic strip light on a Skinner type .

Magpie Moth

|Swallow Prominent
Maple Prominent
Bulrush Wainscot
Knot Grass
This slightly odd specimen had me confused at first, but it seems to be an odd form of Knot Grass
Coronet
I don't know why, but the digital camera seems to find much more in the pattern of the Coronet than my eyes do!
Burnished Brass
Northern Rustic
A slightly odd name for the lover of coastal sites, from the North, West and a few South and Eastern sites.
