[1260] Cydia splendana

Heatwave continues

More trapping again this week and I put the trap out again on the most favourable night that the forecasters had predicted.

Thursday morning saw me going through the trap once again at 6am and jotting down the species present.

I would love to trap every night, but couldn't justify the time making lists day after day, often repeating the same species.

The trap wasn't brimming this morning but there was one surprise towards the bottom. The wetland Pyralid Donacaula forficella. A little tatty but a very welcome addition to the ever growing garden list.

A nice collection of Micros were also new for the year.
