19th August 2020

 A belated new moth the garden was a Toadflax Pug, a  species that was annual in my old garden:

Toadflax Pug Eupithecia linariata

Dewick's Plusia was formerly extremely rare but is now turning up much more regularly. This one was just the second for the garden though: 

Dewick's Plusia Macdunnoughia confusa

A handful of other species were new for the year including the migrant Rush Veneer:

Rush Veneer Nomophila noctuella

While Small Square-spot has turned up in the last three years now:

Small Square-spot Diarsia rubi

This Prays ruficeps is just the third record I believe:

Prays ruficeps

[615] Toadflax Pug
