Meeting at Hemley Church at 10.30am. Grid ref is TM285423.

We’re trying something a bit different this year by starting off looking at some saltmarsh in the morning.  This should give a chance to see some different species to those normally seen.

We’ll try for lunch at a nearby pub although it will be a Sunday and pubs could be busy. The afternoon session is likely to be at somewhere like Newbourne Springs for a site with a better selection of trees and plants.

This is the first record that I’m aware of for this species in the east of the county for a very long time. Well worth keeping your eyes open for this moth if you’re in the area.

Tony

Organised at fairly short notice in Feb/March – mild evenings above 3 degrees (hopefully even milder) between 6pm -8pm approx.

I am looking for a few volunteers to help with some survey visits to Kings Forest looking at rotovated plots on forest rides and clearings to see whether lunar yellow underwing is present. This will help to inform Forestry Commission management work and the Shifting Sands Heritage Lottery Project.

Please contact Sharon Hearle on shearle@butterfly-conservation.org Tel 07920131526 if you might be able to help

Currently things like ‘Flying tonight’ and the new moth guide are broken and with the new hosting it should be easier for me to fix this. It will also make it easier for me to add some new features that I’ve had planned for a while.

At some stage I will temporarily stop the ability to post to the blog while it is transferred over to the new site. The transfer is unlikely to take long.

This species was noted at Red Lodge last year by Sharon Hearle on a Butterfly Conservation meeting and I went over and took some photographs. The female in the photos appeared to be ovipositing as she kept thrusting her abdomen down into the flower. The larvae initially feed on the seeds.

Well worth keeping your eyes open for this species if you come across any Field Scabious in the new few weeks.

Not a larva I’ve encountered before. Now I’ve just to track down Pterophorus pentadactyla a bit later in the year.

<![CDATA[ <p><em>Nemophora metallica</em> is a pretty scarce species in Suffolk, almost certainly due to lack of suitable habitat. This species was noted at Red Lodge last year by Sharon Hearle on a Butterfly Conservation meeting and I went over and took some photographs. The female in the photos appeared to be ovipositing as she kept thrusting her abdomen down into the flower. The larvae initially feed on the seeds.</p> <p>Well worth keeping your eyes open for this species if you come across any Field Scabious in the new few weeks.</p> <p>Tony</p> <p><a href="http://suffolkmoths.org.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/20150718-RedLodge.013.jpg"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-6267 alignnone" alt="20150718 RedLodge.013" src="http://suffolkmoths.org.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/20150718-RedLodge.013-150x150.jpg" width="150" height="150" /></a> <a href="http://suffolkmoths.org.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/20150718-RedLodge.023.jpg"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-6268 alignnone" alt="20150718 RedLodge.023" src="http://suffolkmoths.org.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/20150718-RedLodge.023-150x150.jpg" width="150" height="150" /></a></p> ]]>
