Description: Tuesday night moths Well the weather during the daytime has been just glorious with temperatures hitting the low 20's early on in the week and as a result clear skies were the order of the day (or night) and thus come the morning it was a little cool and misty early Wednesday. The catch wasn't bad at all with 4 new for year species noted and some nice micro moths to pot up and inspect. The fourth Oak Nycteoline of the year was also a form i've never seen before which was nice. A very grey Mompha epilobiella was also noted, lacking the usual yellowy straw colouration, the markings under a hand lens still corresponded for this species. Common Quaker saw a massive rise to 25 examples.

Description: Quality moths but small numbers Quality over quantity last night with a year first Streamer, one of the prettiest Geometridae species in this Country a moth I missed out on last year. Also added to the year-list was an Acleris cristana, yet another species that missed out on an appearance in 2015.
