After a couple of warm nights a few new species have emerged but numbers still seem on the low side. For only the second time this year I ran the trap through the night on the 24th and caught a total of 48 moths of 14 species. Frosted Green (2), Brindled Beauty (3), Streamer and Red Chestnut were new for the year with Early Thorn (5) and Brindled Pug (2). I also ran the trap for a couple of hours on the 23rd with the best moth being a pristine Nut-tree Tussock.
