Thursday 1st October
A nice find at Glasgow Western Necropolis and perfect timing.
Stigmella salicis : tenanted leafmine on Eared Sallow. Collected for rearing. Checked on it early evening to find the caterpillar had exited the mine and had started to make its cocoon.

A couple of nights (18th & 19th September) trapping on the North #Norfolk coast at Kelling provided some fabulous autumn species. Details in ALT #moths #mothsmatter #teammoth #bugsky #norfolkmoths

Just checked the trap one more time and found our first Merv of the year lurking inside #teammoth

Half of the moths in last nights garden trap (Chichester) were Lunar Underwings. There was a nice range of colour variation. #teammoth

#teammoth trap contents very sparce this a.m. So spent some time bringing my spreadsheet up to date (I should have kept it contemporaneously🙄).

All good however, as I found a Moth I hadn’t entered back from July 9th. NFG #491 Eucosma conterminana (Lettuce Tortrix). It’s new for the tetrad. 🔲

For the first #mothfacefriday of October, I give you a Merveille du Jour (you can call him Merv for short) resplendent in green, white and black #teammoth

A better photo of the Scarce Bordered Straw, after it had settled down. VC13 #moths #mothing #teammoth
