Yet another great garden catch

Still warming day by day.
Garden catches are ticking along nicely, with new species added on a nightly basis, although species counts have dropped, more akin to mid-August (Maybe it's the drought conditions that have caused this).
 
4 species were added to the year list, the best was a Lesser-spotted Pinion and the larger species of Dioryctria, Dioryctria abietella.
 
Below are the new species for the year/garden.

Moth garden list for 2022 stands at 508 species
