Post 7 (16.07.18) - I think that you are right. I compared my list from 13.07.18 from a similar effort at the same site on 20.07.13. This time, I recorded 224 species whereas in 2013, I recorded 248 species. Having finally compared the lists, the main difference was in noctuids with 52 species to 65 species in 2013.
All the best
My highlights for the balance of July from the garden were an Antler, a Hoary Footman (picture alongside Common Footman), Jersey Tiger and various Garden Tigers.
Hoping to get back out into habitat tonight to get August underway.
All the best
