A combination of my day job taking over and a cloudless virtually full moon sky has meant no worthwhile opportunity to go trapping over the last week or so. It does give me a chance to sort some photos from earlier in the month
Austrocarea iocephala (Nolidae, Chloephorinae) this is usually a rare annual visitor with a good year seeing two records. This year it has been a regular visitor appearing on at least ten occasions so far
Cernia amyclara (Geometridae, Oenochrominae) a regular visitor to the sheet but always a pleasure to see.
Neogyne (Geometridae, Ennominae) I have only recorded this genus on a handful of occasions so was vey happy to see this one earlier in the month
Oglasa prionosticha (Erebidae, Erebinae) currently placed in Oglasa by some references but consensus is that it remains unplaced. A new species for me
Pardomima amyntusalis (Crambidae, Spilomelinae) I have only caught this on two previous occasions.
Thosea threnopis (Limacodidae) my run of Limacods continues with a couple of records of this species so far this month
