[QUOTE="Reader, post: 1231863, member: 234"] I trapped from 10pm to 02:15 on Friday night and it was another extremely busy 4+hours with 165 moths caught for 54 species, which includes six still to be sorted (one of those is a Pug too worn to sort out). Out of those so far I have managed two new moths for the garden. The five remaining moths are in my other thread waiting for an ID. [url]http://www.birdforum.net/showthread.php?t=109756&page=7[/url] I now think the third one on post #172 is a Clouded-bordered Brindle but obviously I need it confirming. Two others are possibly Small Clouded Brindle & Eucosma cana leaving two tiny Micros that I can't work out. If someone could give those five a look over I would be grateful as I would like to complete Friday Nights catch so that I can enter it in full with the Warwickshire recorder. Any way my catch was as follows. 25 x The Snout 20 x Heart & Dart 9 x Large Yellow Underwing 8 x The Flame 7 x Common Marbled Carpet 6 x Dark Arches 6 x Chrysoteuchia culmella 5 x Bee Moth 5 x Garden Carpet 4 x Elephant Hawkmoth 4 x Riband Wave (1 banded) 4 x Silver Y 3 x Peppered Moth (one f. insularia) 3 x Fan-foot 3 x Flame Shoulder 3 x Small Magpie 3 x Bramble Shoot Moth 3 x Common Wave 2 x Bright-line Brown-eye 2 x Angle Shades 2 x Brimstone 2 x Common Carpet 2 x Green Pug 2 x Straw Dot 2 x Crambus pascuella 2 x Double Square-spot (NFG) 1 x Common Emerald 1 x Light Emerald 1 x Light Arches 1 x LBAM 1 x Poplar Grey 1 x Swallow-tailed Moth 1 x Blood-vein 1 x The spectacle 1 x Dark Fruit-tree Tortrix 1 x Marbled Beauty 1 x The Miller 1 x The Uncertain 1 x Celypha striana 1 x Clouded Silver 1 x Barred Yellow 1 x Burnished Brass 1 x Gold Spot 1 x Pale Mottled Willow 1 x Common White Wave 1 x Teleiodes vulgella (NFG). 1 x Agriphila straminella 1 x Dark / Grey Dagger 1 x Unidentifiable Pug + those 5 that are in the album. Below are photos of five of the 54 species caught that night. 1. Burnished Brass 2. Silver Y 3. The Miller 4. Double Square-spot 5. Bee Moth John [/QUOTE]
