Toadflax Brocade 21 August 2015



A Toadflax Brocade was the clear highlight of my first trapping effort in the garden for a month. This is a rare (Red Data Book) species and needless to say a first for the garden (#452. It is semi-regular at just a small handful of sites in Cambs.

A small totrix I absentmindedly took a photo of turned out to be Epinotia nisella - another addition, although more expected, to the garden (#453).
