Comments on: Springtime moths appear at last. http://suffolkmoths.org.uk/blog/index.php/2016/03/24/springtime-moths-appear-at-last/ Topical information from the Suffolk Moth Group Tue, 25 Feb 2020 18:38:33 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=3.6.1 By: Neil http://suffolkmoths.org.uk/blog/index.php/2016/03/24/springtime-moths-appear-at-last/#comment-2335 Neil Sat, 26 Mar 2016 18:21:21 +0000 http://suffolkmoths.org.uk/blog/?p=5999#comment-2335 I’m surprised there are no lists from that site, I’m sure they would have been sent in. From what I remember we suffered from cold nights when we went there each time and the species lists weren’t great. I do remember getting Pale pinion there which you too have seen but of course when we got it back in 2008 it was a species only just colonizing the county so was a good record (first county record in 2006).

Wednesday produced good numbers of orthosias especially Twin-spotted Quaker and the first Lead-coloured Drab and Engrailed of the year (12 species). Last night between dusk and 9.30pm similar species but including the first Pine Beauty & D. subpurpurella of the year (11 species). Numbers of Small Quaker seem to be low compared to last year but Oak Beauty & Brindled Pug have been abundant. 16 different species over the 2 nights. The garden has not really got going yet with just a few Common Quaker, Early Grey and Amblyptillia acanthadactyla.
Last month, I had a couple of adult Esperia sulphurella in our timber built conservatory which makes me think there is some rotten wood somewhere that I will need to investigate.

As last year the March moth is abundant and as with you Diurnea fagella is common this year.
