I was up in the East Midlands for a few days and had the trap out a couple of times. There wasn't a huge difference in what I catch in Cambs but there were a few things of interest:
The rarest moth was actually my new friend the Box-tree. There were three individuals over the two nights which is as many as have been recorded in the whole of Notts up to 2018. I'm sure there have been more in 2019 that haven't made it on to the system; it definitely seems to have advanced its march into the Midlands.
