Summary[
edit] Description: A muggy and drizzly night Not last night, but the previous night, after a nice warm day and highs of nigh on 23 degrees, the sky clouded over as I was just debating whether to run the trap on the third consecutive night..I did indeed as the conditions looked perfect. A few more additions to the garden year list, Slender Pug and Teleiodes vulgella was the pick of the bunch. Ingrailed Clay seems to have stopped now and Dark Arches is probably going to increase now, Bright-line Brown-eye still having a cracking year and 5 examples of Common White Wave is the most I have ever recorded in one trap before. Also a second brood Engrailed was found on the side of the trap, the slightly early date of this second brood could suggest a third brood may be recorded in August. Also of interest, I haven't recorded Pandemis cerasana or heparana this year yet (both recorded last year) but I got my first corylana last night, suggesting I may have missed these two common species this year. Will try trapping again tonight, after a break last night (cool and clear) Catch Report - 17/06/14 - Back Garden Stevenage - 1x 125w MV Robinson Trap Macro Moths 1x Slender Pug [NFY] 1x Double Square-spot [NFY] 4x Dark Arches 3x Dot Moth 1x Green Pug 2x Freyer's Pug 2x Large Yellow Underwing 3x Common Footman 1x Engrailed 2x Flame Shoulder 12x Mottled Rustic 22x Heart & Dart 1x Poplar Hawk-moth 1x Flame 2x Grey Pug 2x Light Emerald 2x Marbled Minor 2x Green Silver-lines 2x Garden Carpet 7x Brown Rustic 1x Vine's Rustic 1x Clouded Silver 1x Clouded Border 1x Spectacle 1x Maiden's Blush 1x Orange Footman 5x Common White Wave 1x Common Swift 1x Mottled Beauty 6x Bright-line Brown-eye 8x Uncertain 1x Pale Mottled Willow 1x Large Nutmeg Micro Moths 1x Epiblema uddmanniana [NFY] 1x Endotricha flammealis [NFY] 1x Amblyptilia acanthadactyla [NFY] 1x Blastobasis lacticolella [NFY] 1x Archips xylosteana [NFY] 1x Pandemis corylana [NFY] 1x Teleiodes vulgella [NFY] 5x Tortrix viridana 2x Dipleurina lacustrata 1 Emmelina monodactyla 1x Epiphyas postvittana 4x Celypha lacunana 1x Hedya nubiferana 1x Udea olivalis 1x Udea prunalis 3x Aphomia sociella 4x Aleimma loeflingiana 3x Chrysoteuchia culmella 3x Scoparia ambigualis.

4 days of mothing and a change of weather I've been pretty lazy lately updating my blog and so here is a combined list of moths including all of the new for year species since the 22nd of July until the 30th. In the time I trapped 4 times and each time the catch has got slightly lower each time. This slow down I usually expect to see at the end of August, but with species such as Square-spot Rustic, Rosy Rustic and Straw Underwing it kind of feels like that time of year already. Some great new moths for the year last week including the rarely seen Nutmeg (with just 3 records now for the garden and last seen in 2014). Nutmeg is a strange one for me. It seems to have poor years for about 5 or 6 consecutive years then an explosion happens like in 2012 where I trapped no less than 220 over two traps on the farm at Braughing Friars. Also Ypsolopha scabrella, which was a garden first in 2013 returned after a four year absence and not just one but 4 over the week and all different specimens as they were potted up. Udea ferrugalis was recorded as well, a migrant that has turned up for the last 5 years running and my earliest garden record by 29 days, I actually caught two of them on different nights which was pleasing. Last week saw a spurt of migrants with a year first Nomophila noctuella also recorded and no less than 35 Silver-Y's over the week. Unbelievably I missed out on Copper Underwing last year, a common moth and which was a year first on the 28th of July. But saving the best until last was a new Macro Moth for the garden and a truly un-welcome visitor if you work for DEFRA, the Oak Processionary Moth. Really pleased to trap this presumed wanderer from its stronghold population in the Thames Valley and in many districts of London. Unfortunately, it was in a pretty dire state but it still counts and I believe only the second record for Hertfordshire. The year list now sits on 414 species with the year totals so far being 2016 - [372] 2015 - [401] 2014 - [423] 2013 - [385] So I need 9 species to level with the best year in 2014, that should be easily attainable with about 20 common species 'expected' to turn up before the year ends. That is all for now... back to trapping for me.
