Numbers still fairly good for the end of summer

Numbers of moths are still pretty good here, with multiples of the common species such as White-point, Setaceous Hebrew Character, Straw Underwing & Flounced Rustic.
 
Last Friday there were no new species for the year, however the 2nd Campion and Herald of the year were worth jotting down and photographing, the Herald was only new to my garden this year.
 
Many Neocochylis are visiting the traps on a regular basis (Of course I still call them all Cochylis, it's kind of ingrained into me from the old names).
 
A single but smart hybridella was nice to get, the least common of the 4 I get here.


Moth garden list for 2024 stands at 565 species
