Summary[edit] Description: Garden Catch 08/07/18 - More garden firsts! Another good night mothing in the garden, and with the previous nights catch emptied 50m away down the bridlepath, recaptures were at a minimal once more. There was a lot of activity come the morning and amongst the common expected moths were some real crackers. It was two a piece between the Macros and the Micros for the incredible 4 new for garden species in one night. The most shocking being Platytes alpinella, a predominantly coastal species which i've taken before on the Essex coast, so it was a bit of a shock to get one in the garden trap, also confirmed as only the 2nd County record. Southern Wainscot was also a presumed wanderer on such a warm and muggy night. Two other species that caught my eye and that were instantly potted were the other 2 garden firsts, the stunning Figure of Eighty and the pretty in pink Celypha rosaceana. All in all an amazing night. Garden species count for 2018 now upto 351. Here are the new for year species.
