2 More moths to ID please
The first one was on the Space bar of my computer last night and the other is a little beauty. It was about one & a half inches across the wings and just arrived about 10 minutes before I did this thread at 23:45hrs.

Hi Reader,
Your second specimen is a Small Magpie Moth (Pyralid) No.1. has me a little confused, it looks like one of the 'Snout' moths but none that I know of are green. The palps are reminiscent of some of the Pyralid moths but I can't see any that fit. I'll sleep on it. Harry |

Not a clue on the moths, but I hope that hair in the background of the 1st picture isn't what I think it is!

I asked Ian Kimber about quite a few Moth ID's last year and I asked him if he had a CD of Moths I could have. He said that he did have one and I paid a tenner for it. I have attached what it looks like when I open it up. I forgot to add. Here is a link to Ians site if you didn't already know it> http://cgi.ukmoths.force9.co.uk Last edited by John J : Thursday 10th June 2004 at 18:14. |
