I've yet to total it but its in excess of 500 species (macro & micro) for 3 years of dedicated traping, sorting and identifying!
Here are the two new species, both have had better days unfortunately!
Dark Spinach

Scarce Silver-lines (These are beautiful when fresh i'm told)

Other good moths on the night......
Waved Black (A Nationally Scarce B species that feeds on moss/lichens)

Double Lobed

Nice 'Swan song' Ben. I've never seen any of those!! Good luck in your new place.

Hope your new domicile has good mothing prospects Ben, over 500 ! man that is impressive
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the move. I'd struggle to leave my garden and start again, but I suppose that the new sites will be a new challenge and hopefully some new species. No Waved Black, Scarce Silver Lines or Dark Spinach down here, nice finale.
