An early morning at Newton Harcourt, Leicestershire - June 27, 2013

Dave had put his month trap out last night and caught thirty-six identifiable months with a few that were too worn to distinguish.


There were two new moths a Freyer’s Pug and a Puff Moth, which was rather worn but this now takes my species count for Newton Harcourt to 203.

The following were trapped: Brown House-moth [1]; Timothy Tortrix [1]; Celpha lacunana [4]; Small Magpie [1]; Udea olivalis [1]; Blood-vein [1]; Common Marble Carpet [1]; Foxglove Pug [2]; Freyer’s Pug [1]; Common Pug [1]; Scorched Wing [1]; Puss Moth [1]; Buff Ermine [2]; Heart and Dart [8]; Flame [1]; Brown Rustic [3]; Dark Arches [1]; Marble Minor species [2] and Silver Y [1].
