Similar experience here in Grundisburgh last night- fourteen species, all run- of – the mill stuff, but including l-album wainscot, mallow and pale lemon sallow.
Not one micro- which is annoying because I want to play with the new Field Guide by Sterling and Parsons. What do other members think of it, bye the bye? It’s obviously nowhere near comprehensive, but I’ve already found it useful.
I found the book to be very useful indeed, cutting id time considerably in many cases!
I found the new micro book has speeded up identification in some groups significantly, particularly the Tortricidae. However the images are a bit stylised so I have checked with photos of live specimen. I also find that with some of the more difficult groups such as the Coleophora and Gelichids the book can be misleading.
I have found it very helpful as the first reference point for identifying some of the micros, but I always go to other books and the internet to firm up the determination if I’m not sure.
