Summary

[edit]
Description

Garden Catch 22/07/18 - Common by name but not by nature! Two new for garden species headed the catch on the 22nd of July, both Common Wave (2 examples!) and August Thorn. The former was expected eventually but it always seems to be the rarer of the two 'white' waves, to get two in the garden on the same night after 6 years was great.

The latter species, August Thorn is a rare moth for me in Herts with just one previous record for me personally, very pleased to add it to my garden list and it pushes my Macro Moth total to 342 for the garden in total. It is also interestingly only the second moth (After Angle Shades) that i've recorded starting with the letter A.

Jersey Tiger was only the second garden record (This is an extremely common moth in the East of Herts with over 100 being caught in Liz Goodyear's trap several times!).

The micro's were supplemented by year firsts of Phyllonorycter geniculella and Piniphila bifasciana


Garden species count for 2018 now upto 422.

Here are the new for year species.
