(0423) Argyresthia semitestacella (36857547171)
Description:
Summary[edit] Description: Last night in the back garden Continuing the theme of smaller content but hopefully more regular and manageable posts. Last night I ran the trap again as you just never know what might fly into it given that we are in peak migrant season currently. A new garden species was the highlight, a tiny Phyllonorycter ulmifoliella sitting on the collar of the trap which was swiftly potted up and photographed, a species that mines the leaves of Birch. Old Lady was also a nice surprise, I don't see many of these and the sheer size of them against all of the other moths in the trap is breath-taking. A garden second record of Argyresthia semitestacella was most welcome, very very similar to albistia but the general jizz of the moth is a longer more slender species with less contrast between the two colours but not always the case. Also a really dark Square-spot Rustic was worthy of a photo and a Flounced Rustic re-appeared after a few weeks absense.
