Sheltered trapping

Haven’t had the trap out for a while, but I had to do so last night to gather some specimens for an event today. Fortunately, i was able to put it under the veranda of the summerhouse to avoid the rain (not sure why I haven’t thought of this before). 13 species was a good return for here. Twelve were macros and all of these were singles, the other three moths were postvittana, which I only seem to get in ‘numbers’ at this time of year. Always a pleasure to have a Merveile du Jour, but scarcest moth for here was the Satellite, this one with an orange reniform stigmata.
