Garden Catch 23/06/18 - Very Lackey to get...

...so many moths, the trap was extremely busy this morning with well over 200 moths.

Highlights were 2 each of Lackey and Lilac Beauty, both far from common species in my garden.
Varied Coronet is always a pleasure to trap, such a pretty moth.
Also Marasmarcha lunaedactyla turned up after a 4 year absense!

All in all, 8 new species for the year were added.


Garden species count for 2018 now upto 260.

Here are the new for year species.
