There was consistent rain last night although with the mildest overnight temperatures for a while alongside, the trap went out again. It was certainly worthwhile with 27 species which is an excellent return for October. I had my latest ever records of Green Carpet, Rosy Rustic and Vine's Rustic while Barred Sallow (2) and Black Rustic (4) showed up for the first time this year.

There were also a few micros to be picked through for the first time in an age. All common species but latest ever records of
Blastobasis lacticolella and
Clepsis consimilana were of note.
