Afternoon,
I've been here 2 years as of mid July and thought I'd stick my records on for anyone who's interested. These pics are what I use to see if I've had a moth before - saves a lot of time ID'ing. I only started running a trap at the beginning of this year so the first year's were moths that landed on the window at night.
Please excuse some of the pictures and if you see any mistakes, let me know.
Most moths are ID'd by your good selves and many thanks again for the help :flowers:
Files with only one or two moths so far are....
Alucitidae - Twenty-plume Moth (Alucita hexadactyla)
Cossidae - Leopard Moth (Zeuzera pyrina)
Glyphipterigidae - Cocksfoot Moth (Glyphipterix simpliciella)
Gracillariidae - Caloptilia robustella
Hepialidae - Gold Swift (Phymatopus hecta), Orange Swift (Triodia sylvina)
Limacodidae - Festoon (Apoda limacodes)
Saturniidae - Emperor (Saturnia pavonia)
Sesiidae - Fiery Clearwing (Pyropteron chrysidiformis), Chamaesphecia aerifrons
Zygaenidae - Five-spot Burnet (Zygaena trifolii), Forester (Adscita statices)
Happy moffing

Arctiidae, top left should of course be Jersey Tiger (Euplagia quadripunctaria) - soz!
Under that should be Dingy Footman - thanks Brian :flowers:
