A little bit busier with 51 species, which still isn't too fantastic for July. However there were two moths that were new two me, the first one provided no identification challenges - a superb Bordered Sallow. This is a species that I have hoped to catch for a while and it didn't disappoint.
The second new moth was a pug. Great. however, it certainly looked different and although I was concerned it might be a worn Plain Pug, after a bit of chat on Cammoths, it looks good for Shaded Pug, which isn't particularly common here in the Fens:
Eleven species to add to the list in total:
[165] Blastodacna hellerella
[166] Blastobasis adutella
[167] Plum Tortrix
[168] Bramble Shoot moth
[169] Eucosma cana
[170] Crambus perlella
