Deep-brown Dart Aporophyla lutulenta

03/10/2021 15W actinic trap: Pyecombe, near Brighton

 

Another visit to Sussex, again camping at Chantry Farm, Pyecombe, this time in heavy winds and rain, not conducive to mothing. www.chantryfarm.org/

 

Despite the poor conditions one trapping session yielded two species I’d not seen before, Deep-brown Dart and Rusty-dot Pearl, and one of my autumnal favourites, Green-brindled Crescent.
