Epinotia abbreviana Fabricius 1794

Description: A bit more to report from Sunday the 10th of June, with a further 8 confirmed year-listers added. Both forms of Riband Wave present, and a second garden record of the ever-increasing Endothenia nigricostana was nice. The best moth was a Pseudatemelia species that will need dissecting and could be one of two species - NEW FOR GARDEN. There are a few to check and dissect including a Colephora, Parornix, Pseudatemelia and Bucculatrix species. Garden species count for 2018 now upto 195. Here are the new for year species.

Description: Tuesday night in the garden Another trapping session last Tuesday was well worth it again after a sultry and muggy day, the sky did clear a little but with a minimum temperature of 14 degrees. The only problem was that damn wind and with the threat of the odd downpour but still come the morning there was a lovely selection of moths in and around the trap. Another Acleris schalleriana explosion probably from the masses of pupa found a few weeks ago in the Viburnum bush outside our front window. Two moths were completely new for my garden, both Yponomeuta rorrella and Phtheochroa rugosana. rorrella I may have over-looked in the past, but it is one of the doable Yponomeuta species with its slight two-tone grey appearance.

Description: Trip to Bath and Bristol yields a new moth for me Just got back from our holiday away and we had a lovely time in a beautiful part of the Country and we were blessed with lovely weather, especially yesterday whilst visiting Bristol Zoo. As you do..I had my net in the car and a limited amount of 3 pots. I had two brief sweeping sessions with net and torch on Wednesday and Thursday night and turned up plenty of species. Highlight was a new species for me, the Gelechid Telechrysis tripuncta, and even better still it was only the second moth I netted! I took photos of Wormwood Pug and Epinotia abbreviana, both species I hadn't seen yet this year.
